The premiere of Hogwarts Legacy is delayed. Harry Potter fans will wait for an RPG in the Wizarding World until 2022
Source: Pure PC added 14th Jan 2021Last year there were many game slips, but only a small part of the shifted titles saw the light of day in 2020 year. I am talking about Cyberpunk 2077, which did not necessarily have a good effect on the quality of the Polish RPG. However, other publishers may also draw conclusions from the “mishaps” of CD Projekt RED, who will not rush developers to release the game at the most optimal time. As a result, there may be even more delays. The year has barely begun, and two productions of considerable size have already fallen: Outriders by the Polish team People Can Fly, and now Hogwarts Legacy, an action RPG in an open world known from Harry Potter books and movies, which probably does not need to be introduced to anyone.
Hogwarts Legacy is one of the first games to be postponed this year. The premiere of the action RPG in the wizarding world of Harry Potter will take place only in 2022. We know the cause of the slide.
Game hits and shits 2020 from the PurePC editorial office. What surprised, what was disgusting, and what do we sharpen our teeth for in 2021?
Hogwarts Legacy was on our list of the most anticipated games 2021 of the year, namely on two: Ewelina and mine. There is a reason, because this is a game that fans of the wizarding universe have been waiting for for many years, and at least it promises to be a third-person action RPG in an open world from Avalanche Software studio (creators of Disney Infinity, often mistaken for the authors of the Just Cause series) , Portkey Games, and Warner Bros. Unfortunately, the game will not be released before the end of this year, but only in an unspecified period 2022 of the year. The creators explain this decision by the desire to create the best possible experience for all fans of the wizarding universe of Harry Potter. To do this, they just need more time. Unfortunately, we do not know exactly how many.
Outriders – the Polish game is delayed once again, but before the premiere there will be a demo version of the production
On the one hand, such a quick announcement of the slippage after just over half a year from the announcement of the project and the appointment the deadline for 2021 may be surprising, but on the other hand – in the face of the coronavirus pandemic, which has affected the work of many development studios (and not only) , and the disgusting premiere of Cyberpunk 2077 not necessarily … According to the usually well-informed insider Jason Schreier from Bloomberg, this is the first of many game slides in 2021 year. Hogwarts Legacy is created for the PC and the old (PlayStation 4 and Xbox One) and new generation (PS5 and Xbox Series X / S) consoles. In the game we will go to the nineteenth-century Hogwarts, so we will follow the fate of another “chosen one”, many years before the events of JK Rowling’s novels and Harry Potter films.
