WHY WAS HOGWARTS LEGACY DELAYED ON LAST GENERATION CONSOLES?

Various titles have suffered in recent months for being intergenerational releases. Surely Avalanche Software wants to avoid any controversy related to the subject, so they asked for extra time to polish the game to the maximum.

As for the Switch version, it is evident that the team also requires time to make the necessary adjustments and take advantage of the potential and hybrid nature of the Nintendo console.

Hogwarts Legacy will arrive on February 10 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X | S, and PC.
