Hogwarts Legacy Plot and Gameplay

Warner Bros. offers a new story for the Hogwarts Legacy title, moving away from the company's successful franchise of the Harry Potter movies, including the similar role-playing games on the PS2, PS3, PlayStation Portable, Xbox Series, and PC.
The company's past games mostly revolved around the Harry Potter novels and franchise with an established storyline and gameplay that follows its source material. Niantic's Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is one of the first Wizarding World games that took a different route and story, as it requires a new breed of interactive gameplay, much like Pokemon Go.
Hogwarts Legacy is an entirely different game with its unique story that pre-dates the 'Boy Who Lived,' Harry Potter, and 'Him Who Must Not Be Named,' Voldemort. The game is also set ahead of the new movie series, Fantastic Beasts, led by Newt Scamander, which focuses on the First Wizarding War and Dumbledore and Grindelwald's feud.
Warner Bros.' Hogwarts Legacy is set in the late 1800s, focusing on a late-accepted wizard (the player's avatar) who possesses a unique skill set. The character holds the key to an ancient secret that poses a threat against the wizarding world.

The game would be a third-person POV and follow the character around as he or she progresses in the storyline. Master spells, concoct potions, and study in Hogwarts.
