Hogwarts Legacy Inspired By Last of Us 2, Breath of the Wild, According To Leaker
The Harry Potter game has been the subject of increasing speculations since the September 2020 PlayStation Showcase’s announcement. Hogwarts Legacy is the topic of new speculations when its release date was leaked owing to the launch of a “making-of” book on the game. But this time, it’s the company behind the next Harry Potter video game that is the root of the report – Avalanche Software.
RetroRaconteur is the YouTuber who recently posted a video about it.
Without considering himself as a leaker, but instead as a video game enthusiast. His introduction reveals that he was approached by numerous individuals working on Hogwarts Legacy, and he discusses what he learned from them.
We can’t confirm these statements 100%. So we’ll need to take them with a grain of salt before validating them. To make his claim more credible, he claims that two persons approached him and spoke to him about the same topics.

Open World Hogwarts Legacy?
But what exactly does he mean? He says that the art direction of Breath of the Wild, The Last of Us: Part II, and Ghost of Tsushima were all big influences on Avalanche Software’s approach. Exploration, stealth, and fighting elements will all allegedly be included in the game.
Additionally, special dungeons will be introduced, which would require a party to explore. The open-world game would also have multiple regions, each with numerous towns and non-playable characters with distinct personalities. With the use of specific questlines, relationships between characters would keep players interested and involved in the game.

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
