While many assumed Avalanche Software was done with Hogwarts Legacy, the studio may still have more up its sleeve. Despite its massive success in 2023, the Wizarding World RPG managed to disappoint some fans with its lackluster post-launch . While the game is designed to be a single-player experience that wasn't built around continuous content updates, players were hoping for additional gameplay features that may not have been ready to ship with the launch version of Hogwarts Legacy.

Fortunately, there may be more on the way as a recent report from Hogwarts Legacy is in the early stages of development, although information on this project is still scarce.

A Hogwarts Legacy Successor Is "One Of The Biggest Priorities" WB States

The RPG Cast A Spell On The World

It's no surprise that Warner Bros. wants a Hogwarts Legacy sequel as the publisher desperately needs another success. While the Wizarding World RPG proved itself by being the best-selling game of 2023, Warner Bros. followed it up with a series of disappointing releases including Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions; it also recently announced the termination of MultiVersus. With such a rocky year, it's clear that Warner Bros. Games needs another smash hit.

Warner Bros. Games' recent struggles could also be the reason Avalanche is returning to Hogwarts Legacy. Adding more content to the game while the sequel gestates would be an excellent way to retain the player base, ensuring that fans are primed for the next adventure. Since the sequel is likely still at least a couple of years away, the community will undoubtedly enjoy Hogwarts Legacy for some fresh adventures.

But What Will It Look Like?

While Hogwarts Legacy is already filled with content, I couldn't help but feel that various parts of the game felt unfinished. I'd love NPCs to have actual schedules to ending was tweaked to be less abrupt. Even if more content updates aren't planned, I have to hope that the sequel is at least able to learn from the community's and fix some of the lingering issues.
