Hogwarts Legacy may be aiming for a September release

It’s been a long time since there’s been any news on Hogwarts Legacy, the RPG prequel to the whole Harry Potter franchise, and fans are undoubtedly wondering where the highly-anticipated game has got to. Now a new leak and the reveal of a “making of” tie-in book both suggest that the Hogwarts Legacy release date may be down for September time.

If you need a history lesson, Hogwarts Legacy was announced back in 2020 as an 1800s-set prequel to the Harry Potter/Wizarding World series and – like pretty much every Warner Bros game announced back then – suffered multiple delays, although it’s currently still down for this year. As for when in 2022, that’s anyone’s guess.

There’s now been a surprising hint as to when the game might hit, as a tie-in book called The Art and Making of Hogwarts Legacy has been revealed – and it’s due for release on September 6, 2022. It’s written by Jody Revenson, who has done several Wizarding World companion books – but most importantly, if that’s down for early September, then Warner Bros presumably intends to release it around the same time as the game.
