Hogwarts Legacywas featured at thePlayStation State of Play for September 2022, where its PlayStation-exclusive quest was revealed to the world. Those playingHogwarts Legacyon PS4 or PS5 will be treated to the Haunted Hogsmeade quest, which includes access to an extra dungeon, the Shopkeeper’s cosmetic set, and access to a special Hogsmeade shop that will be unavailable in other versions of the game. Perhaps most interestingly, theHogwarts LegacyPlayStation exclusive quest has a distinct horror vibe to it.
In the trailer, the Hogwarts student isvisiting a shop in Hogsmeade, a town close to Hogwarts Castle that older students visit in their off-time. While there, they discover a ladder leading down to some kind of hidden area that is populated by what appears to be living, hostile mannequins. What happens next genuinely looks like it belongs in a horror game, with trippy visuals, doors opening by themselves, and spiders crawling around.
TheHogwarts studentin the trailer is at least able to fight back with some spells, though players will have to get their hands on the game for themselves to see the conclusion to the quest. Only those on PS4 and PS5 will get to experience thisHogwarts Legacyquest, which will likely disappointHarry Potterfans that plan on picking it up for Switch or Xbox.
Xbox owners will miss out on playing this PlayStation-exclusive quest inHogwarts Legacy, but at least they will get to play the game on the same day as their PS4 and PS5 counterparts. Those on Switch still have no idea when their version ofHogwarts Legacywill be available, as the Switch port has been delayed indefinitely. More information on theHogwarts LegacySwitch port’s releasedate was promised to come “soon,” but fans are still waiting to learn more.
Hogwarts Legacylaunches February 10 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X with a Switch version also in development.
