News | The Hogwarts Legacy launch trailer has been released

Warner Bros. Interactive has released the so-called 'launch trailer' of Harry Potter game Hogwarts Legacy.

The trailer can be viewed in a resolution of 4K if the viewer has a supporting screen. The video contains about two and a half minutes of footage from the upcoming game.

In Hogwarts Legacy, players control a fifth-year Hogwarts student. They explore the school and the world around it, learn spells, brew potions and fly on a broomstick. The game is set around 1890, so there are hardly any characters from the books and movies, except for some cameos.

Hogwarts Legacy will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S on February 10. The PS4 and Xbox One versions will release on April 4, and the Nintendo Switch version on July 25.

News | Take another look at the upcoming Gotham Knights

Warner Bros. Games released a new trailer for Gotham Knights, which mainly focuses on gameplay from the game.

The publisher is calling it a “gameplay launch trailer” as the game will be released in two weeks. Check out the trailer below.

In Gotham Knights, players take on the role of Robin, Nightwing, Red Hood and Batgirl, shortly after the death of an important figure in Gotham. The game should have a “dynamic and interactive” open world that will house famous villains such as the Court of Owls.

Gotham Knights is out October 21 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC. Initially, the game was also going to come to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but that version was canceled.


News | Contents of various editions of Hogwarts Legacy leaked

The content of several editions of the upcoming Harry Potter game Hogwarts Legacy has appeared online.

A Reddit user found hidden files on the game’s website, indicating that the game will likely come in a Standard Edition, a Deluxe Edition, and a Collector’s Edition.

The standard edition logically only contains the game. The Deluxe Edition also includes a Thestral Mount, the Dark Arts Cosmetic Pack, the Dark Arts Battle Arena, the Dark Arts Garrisson Hat, the Kelpie Robe and 72 hours early access to the game. The Collector’s Edition includes all of the above as well as a Steel Case and a Floating Ancient Magic Wand with Book. The latter may be a physical object instead of the aforementioned digital extras.

The above special editions have not yet been officially announced.

Hogwarts Legacy is set to release around the holidays this year on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, and Xbox One. In Hogwarts Legacy, players control a fifth-year Hogwarts student. They explore the school and the world around it, learn spells, brew magic potions and fly on a broomstick. The game is set around 1800, so characters from the books and movies are few and far between, except for some cameos.

Gotham Knights will be released on October 25 for PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S.


News | Gotham Knights Gameplay Shown

Warner Bros. Games has showcased new gameplay from the upcoming Gotham Knights. The company has also announced that the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game have been canceled.

The nearly fourteen-minute video features gameplay from Nightwing and Red Hood, two of the game’s four playable characters. It can be seen that Nightwing uses a glider and Red Hood can make big jumps. Director Geoff Ellenor, meanwhile, tells more about the game.

There are also quite a few battles shown. Also on display is the Belfry, a secret home base from which players can select missions via the Batcomputer. That way players can make progress.

While a recent mention on PSN suggested that the game can be played with four players in co-op, there is no mention of that in this video – so for now the game only appears to be playable for two players.

Finally, it has been announced that Gotham Knights will no longer be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The game was originally supposed to appear on that, but that’s not happening now. Warner Bros. Games says this will ensure “players get the best gameplay experience possible”.

In Gotham Knights, players take on the role of the two above characters, Robin and Batgirl, shortly after the death of an important figure in Gotham. The game should have a “dynamic and interactive” open world that will house famous villains such as the Court of Owls.

The game is being developed by Warner Bros. Games Montreal, led by creative director Patrick Redding, who previously directed Splinter Cell: Blacklist and Splinter Cell: Conviction.

Gotham Knights is out October 25 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S.

News | Harry Potter Hogwarts Legacy Game Coming After Fantastic Beasts 3

The Harry Potter game Hogwarts Legacy will not be released until sometime after the release of the Fantastic Beasts 3 movie.

That’s according to a Toy World Magazine interview with Rachel Wakley, who is responsible for consumer products at Warner Bros, it has been spotted on Reddit. She reports that two major Harry Potter releases are in the pipeline in 2022: a movie and a game. Then she mentions the movie and the game by name.

It was already known that Fantastic Beasts 3 and Hogwarts Legacy will be released in 2022, but a release date for the latter has not yet been set. The third Fantastic Beasts movie, sub-titled The Secrets of Dumbledore, hits theaters on April 15, so Hogwarts Legacy should be out sometime after that in 2022. That’s still a very spacey period, but at least fans now know not to expect the game before April 15.

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Legacy  will release for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, and PC.
