Sad news from Hogwarts Legacy!

Hogwarts Legacy, one of the most anticipated games of 2023, has recently been released for PS5, PC and Xbox Series S/X. Avalanche Software, which gave a date of April 4, in order to make more careful optimization for the release of the old generation consoles, postponed this date. Let’s take a look at the details of the news together.

Hogwarts Legacy will arrive on older consoles on May 5

Producer team Avalanche Software has little experience with large-scale gaming. For this reason, the team, which first released the game only to the new generation consoles and PC, would bring it to the old generation consoles on April 4. Now, with the announcement they made on Twitter, Hogwarts Legacy will come to PS4 and Xbox One on May 5, 2023.

While the same situation exists on Nintendo Switch, there is no delay there. The production will hit the Nintendo Switch on July 25. Hogwarts Legacy, which has sold more than 12 million copies in just two weeks, is liked by many players, but there are many people who have difficulty playing the game due to technical problems. The developer team, which has an optimization problem, may not want to have the same problem on PS4 and Xbox One.

Avalanche Software’s statement on Twitter is as follows:

“We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the amazing reaction from fans around the world to Hogwarts Legacy. The team is working hard to provide the best possible experience across all platforms and we need more time to do that. Hogwarts Legacy will be released for PS4 and Xbox One on May 5, 2023.”

Two weeks after Hogwarts Legacy debuted, it sold a total of 12 million units and earned close to $850 million in revenue. Considering that the movie set in the last Harry Potter universe made $ 406 million, Hogwarts Legacy doubled the movie. In addition, players spent a total of 267 million hours in the first two weeks of the game.
