Hogwarts Legacy launches in a little less than a month's time and thanks to a leak, we've gotten a good idea of what players will look forward to.
According to artwork, the map of the magical school's environments might be massive and apparently the game's main story clocks in at about 35 hours with completionists sinking in 70 hours to discover every single thing. Additionally, different houses in Hogwarts Legacy will lead to different ways to progress that main story and one of the houses will be visiting Azkaban as part of their educational experience. Or something.
The RPG also has a variety of endings depending on what the player decides to do, though we do know now that there are two sticky ends for the protagonist to fall foul of, thanks to actress Amelia Gething.

Splendid. We've spotted the dragon in marketing material for the RPG, but if I had to guess, I would imagine that there are other creatures or magical users in the skies when you take to your broom who could pose a threat if you don't dodge their attacks.

Interestingly, Gething's announcement appears to have escaped criticism, unlike that of Croft's. As an outspoken LGBT activist, fans of the Heartstopper actor scolded his involvement in Hogwarts Legacy owing to author J. K. Rowling's anti-transgender opinions.
