TheHarry Potter-inspired RPG was unfortunately snubbed at this year’s upcomingGame Awards, not being nominated for a single category. It’s to be expected since this year has given the games industry some real heavy-hitters, likeZelda: Tears Of The Kingdom,Baldur’s Gate 3,Marvel’s Spider-Man2and many more.
Hogwarts Legacyrecently released on Nintendo Switch, with a snazzy new trailer you can watch below.
That hasn’t stopped fans fromexpressing their disappointmentthough, with many calling its exclusionan injustice. One streamer even hada tantrum over its lack of inclusion, blaming the drama surrounding Harry Potter’s author JK Rowling for its omission.

Regardless the game is still doing very well as one of thebest-selling games of the year. It helps that it’s available to buy on literally everything, initially releasing onXboxSeries X/S,PlayStation5 andPC, before being ported to Xbox One and PlayStation 4, andfinally to Nintendo Switch this month.
Now that the Black Friday sales are underway, the game is getting even more attention, once again skyrocketing to the top of the best-selling charts for this week, ahead ofCall Of Duty: Modern Warfare IIIandMarvel’s Spider-Man 2,which recentlysurpassed five million sales.
Of course, sales don’t equal a spot on the Game Awards ballot, thoughHogwarts Legacyisn’t on its own.Bethesda’snew space-faring IPStarfieldalsomissed out on a nominationfor Game Of The Year and only received one nomination for all the other awards, though fans aren’t exactly surprised.
Hogwarts Legacy can be played on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PC and now Nintendo Switch.
