The reviews have finally dropped for the highly anticipated title, Hogwarts Legacy and they are looking overwhelmingly positive.
The game is currently sitting at a very respectable score of 85 out of 100 on Metacritic based on 43 professional reviews and on OpenCritic, things are looking similar with an average score of 86 out of 100 based from 61 reviews. Such a score places it in the 95th percentile of games on the site.
IGN gave this game a 9 out 10 with particular praise directed towards the general setting and the combat mechanics.
Nevertheless, some of the criticisms keeping the game from an even higher score were directed towards the repetitiveness of some of the side quests to in addition to some performance issues on the PS5 version in particular. The main story has also been cited by some major reviewers as a possible area for improvement.
The general consensus is still a largely positive one though. With a score of 85/100, Hogwarts Legacy is a great game. Maybe not perfect, but still magical and delightfully immersive and entertaining nonetheless!
