Big Success for Hogwarts Legacy
Released at the start of 2023, Hogwarts Legacy sought to bring the world of Harry Potter into the modern age of gaming. Hogwarts Legacy marked the franchise’s first major triple-A experience, coming equipped with a fully realized, immersive open-world environment for players to get lost in. Set a century prior to the events of the Harry Potter novels and films, Hogwarts Legacy tells its own story that challenges players to use spells to their advantage as they uncover the secrets of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The title is still casting magic of its own at the tail end of 2024, with the game reaching a new sales milestone.
Hogwarts Legacy has officially surpassed 30 million copies sold, according to Variety. This is a noticeable bump compared to the game’s last publicly released sales figures, which put Hogwarts Legacy at around 22 million copies sold. According to the game’s publisher, Warner Bros. Games, fans of the world-renowned Harry Potter brand are still very interested in crafting their own story within The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The reception was strong both commercially and critically back when Hogwarts Legacy was first released, with the game’s impact continuing to grow as it has been brought to even more platforms, such as last gen Xbox and PlayStation consoles and the Nintendo Switch.
Aside from that, developers already confirmed a sequel to Hogwarts Legacy. Not much is known about the upcoming sequel, though the project is said to be a “very big priority.” With a new game already confirmed, these new Hogwarts Legacy sales figures are likely a good indicator that fans will see the franchise continue within the video game industry for years to come.
