What Should I Play Now?

Hogwarts Legacy

Image: Steam / Avalanche Software

  • Open world
  • Action RPG
  • Magic

You're a fifth-year student at Hogwarts in the late 19th century: you attend classes to learn spells, chain them into combos in combat and explore the castle, Hogsmeade and the Highlands by broom or hippogriff.

Why play it now

When you've got weeks ahead of you: the main story runs to around 25-35 hours, and doing everything takes twice that.

Who it's for

For Harry Potter fans who want to live inside Hogwarts, though you don't need to be one to enjoy it.

When not to pick it

If you want choices with weight: they don't change the game, and its open world isn't very original.
