The final cherry on top forHogwarts Legacycomes from it being the best-selling game of the year, a position it doesn’t seem to be giving up despite competition from other AAA releases. So far, several big games have been released, such asThe Legend Of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom,Resident Evil 4(2023) andStar Wars Jedi: Survivorto name a few.

That being said,Hogwarts Legacyisn’t out of the woods yet, as it’ll still have to contend with some major titles coming out later this year, likeStarfield,Marvel’s Spider-Man 2andMortal Kombat 1.

It’ll be interesting to see how the game fairs against such big-name releases, and whether the incoming sales from the Nintendo Switch port will bolster the figures enough to keep it on top.
