Even the most skilled magizoologists often struggle to tame or defeat a troll. However, players will have to take on their own version of the terrifying beast and will hopefully earn a few house points by doing so. A swish and flick might come in handy h

Harry, Ron and Hermione encountered a troll during their first year at school, and the creatures would later strike again during the battle of Hogwarts. They are dangerous— but not very bright— beasts and one appears in the trailer for Hogwarts Leg

Except for the name, Hogwarts Legacy has been a known quantity since 2018. Some leaked footage came out before quickly getting scrubbed online. Since it was uploaded the first time this means it will never truly go away. Comparing its footage and this official reveal trailer is an article in and of its

The trailer shows a Hogwarts student fighting off one of these horrible monsters and it's already well known that there's plenty living in the grounds of the school. Any student taking a trip through the Forbidden Forest may be in for a big surpr

Hogwarts Legacy has released its first trailer, promising players that their choices and actions will define the future of the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The trailer also offered a sneak peek at the many locations that fans will be able to explore, in what seems to be an open-world video g

On the subject of the carriage, one might also be able to deduce that players will come into Hogwarts as the semester is already in session. This is similar to how the protagonist of the Persona games always enter their school years. Why? Well, first years always go by boat. After that, they can take these flying carriages starting from the second year all the way to the seventh. The player is also alone without other new kids joining them which backs up this late arrival the

Graphorns Known for having skin tougher than a dragon's and often aggressive in nature, the Graphorn is a large saber-toothed beast with a humpback and tentacle-like appendages around its mouth. One can be seen charging at a student while another allows a different student to pet it, perhaps demonstrating some distinct reactions a player can get depending on what moral choices they m

Many important events happened in 1899, though it seems unlikely they'll be shown in the SLG game collectibles, considering the Fantastic Beasts movies are in the process of covering them and due to their placement at the very end of the century. Ariana Dumbledore accidentally killed her mother and was taken under the care of her brother, Albus, who then graduated Hogwarts with flying colors. Soon after, Albus befriended Grindelwald, forming a brief, romantic relationship with him. This ended after a three-way duel between them and Albus's brother, Aberforth, when they accidentally killed Ariana Dumbledore. Finally, Eloise Mintumble severely disrupted time by getting stuck in the year 1

House elves are an important part of the everyday running of the school. Most importantly, there are hundreds working to create the amazing food that appears in the Great Hall during a feast. The Hogwarts kitchens should be an area players can explore and meet the many work

The game trailer reveals that a few more hippogriffs will be featured around the school. Players will be able to fly on the back of the amazing magical creatures and this could be a way of travelling between the various locations built into the g

The mermaids were only featured in one instalment of the Harry Potter saga, but they still made a huge impact. Appearing during the Triwizard Tournament, they were tasked with protecting the stolen students that those competing had to s

Set in the 1800s, the player receives a late Hogwarts acceptance letter and soon learns they possess an Ancient Magic that can ultimately be used for good or evil. They'll be able to shape the wizarding world and write their own legacy. As the story takes place about a century prior to Harry Potter's enrollment, fans won't likely see a lot of familiar faces. However, players can look forward to the many magical creatures introduced in that series or seen through Newt Scamander's adventures in Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Th

Boggarts Though technically considered an amortal non-being, Boggarts are shapeshifters that assume the form of the observer's worst fear. No one knows what they actually look like and captured Boggarts are typically kept in inanimate objects, such as the cabinet in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom. The charm Riddikulus can be used to banish the Boggart by transforming it into something comical such as a mechanical dummy in the trai

Houses can be chosen. That much is for sure. What isn’t known yet is if this game will have a Mass Effect -like morality system. That said, the trailer might indicate that students could go an evil route. In the fight against the dragon breaking free, the bottom right corner shows a masked man aiding the player. Maybe the skull masks aren’t all evil, but this could point to students being able to go a different p
