Hogwarts Legacy delay frustrates fans as Avalanche devs come under fire Warner Bros. GamesFrustrated Hogwarts Legacy fans have hit out at developers at Avalanche Software after another delay to the game was confirmed, pushing it back to a February 2023 release. Hogwarts Legacy is an upcoming RPG set in the incredibly popular Wizarding World. Ever since the first Harry Potter novel was released, fans across the world haven\u2019t been able to get enough of all the magic the series has had to offer. Despite its lucrative nature and overwhelming success, fans are still waiting on a truly immersive game set in the Harry Potter universe and many have high hopes for Avalanche\u2019s Hogwarts Legacy. Avalanche announce Hogwarts Legacy delayed to February 2023 However, the game\u2019s original release date of 2022 has been pushed back multiple times, with the most recent delay being announced on 12 August. The devs said: \u201cThe team is excited for you to play, but we need a little more time to deliver the best possible game experience.\u201d It did give players a concrete release date of 12 February 2023, but many fans were irritated by another delay to the game, which was originally slated to release in 2021. It was then pushed back to \u2018Holiday 2022\u2019 and now to early 2023. One fan stated: \u201cThe leaked teaser, where the game looked perfectly presentable, came out in 2018, since then you\u2019ve given us two release windows that have failed to be met. Nobody wants a broken game but this is taking the p*** a bit.\u201d Another commented: \u201cStop announcing release dates if you can\u2019t meet the mark! This is such a bad trend in modern games.\u201d However, some did defend the game and its devs, saying that they\u2019d rather a more polished and complete experience on release rather than an unfinished and glitchy mess, as has been the case with other titles pushed out before they\u2019re ready. One player, for example, said: \u201cI would rather have it pushed a little bit so that it doesn\u2019t get released unpolished. If it came Holiday 2022 everyone would complain it\u2019s unpolished. An extra 2 months is not that bad.\u201d Regardless of the criticism, Avalanche are set on a February 2023 release date. Here\u2019s hoping Hogwarts Legacy is worth the wait.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
