Keep the PS4, XBOX ONE, and Nintendo Switch.The common consensus among fans of the game in social media discussions is that WB Games Avalanche will not follow Gotham Knights and limit the number of platforms it will be available on.Given that they have already announced a Nintendo Switch version, one can assume that they will try and ensure that many players can play the title.For fans, the recent Nintendo Switch announcement makes it unlikely that Hogwarts Legacy will not be available for previous generations of Xbox and PlayStation. Releasing on multiple platforms allows the developers to capture a large player base across various hardware.Victor F@victorf1417@HogLegNews @HogwartsLegacy @GothamKnights At the end of the day it depends on their vision for the game, is it possible to execute it and release it on older consoles? If so then by all means, do it, and by the looks of things it will be possible, so I hope everyone gets to play.2@HogLegNews @HogwartsLegacy @GothamKnights At the end of the day it depends on their vision for the game, is it possible to execute it and release it on older consoles? If so then by all means, do it, and by the looks of things it will be possible, so I hope everyone gets to play.However, choosing to shift the title to only next-gen and PC will allow the developers to flesh out Hogwarts Legacy and its wizarding world to its utmost beauty. They can fully utilize the capabilities of the next-gen consoles to provide &quot;the best possible gameplay experience&quot;.Hogwarts Legacy has already seen troublesome times with the title's association with the author of Harry Potter books, the lead designer with Gamergate sympathies, a release delay, and wait for a new trailer that spanned more than a year.The official website for the game explains the original story, stating:&quot;Hogwarts Legacy is an open-world, single-player, action role-playing videogame (RPG) set in the 1800s wizarding world. The story has players experiencing life as a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry like never before, as they live the unwritten and embark on a dangerous journey to uncover a hidden truth of the wizarding world.&quot;Players will get to customize their witch or wizard and experience a student's life at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. They will be able to attend classes and learn about spells, potions, and taming beasts while exploring the length and breadth of the castle and beyond its walls.There is still a long wait ahead for the fans as the game will be released during the holiday period in 2022. Fans will hope that WB Games does not follow a similar suit as Gotham Knights so that many players can experience the magical title.
