The footage shows plenty of spell-slinging against sinister witches and wizards, goblins, and other magical enemies.

There are rumors going around the Wizarding World of a goblin rebellion that your student will somehow get tied up in. It's not all magical classes and friendship in Hogwarts Legacy. One such student is Sebastian Sallow, a Slytherin with a "troubling family past." You'll learn all about these characters' backstories and embark on quests that relate to their lives. Players will meet new friends in their time at Hogwarts, some of which will become companions. While Hogwarts Legacy takes place over 100 years before the Potter novels, some characters like the long-dead spirit Nearly-headless Nick can be found roaming the halls.

Some areas will require a clever mind and some the right magical touch to unveil the secrets hidden within. Hogwarts is filled with mysteries like dungeons and secret passageways littered around its hallowed halls. The demo shows Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Herbology, and Potions classes, along with some of the eccentric professors teaching the school's young minds. You'll choose your house (by sorting hat, of course) and enroll in classes Harry Potter fans are most likely very familiar with. Players will start by creating their new Hogwarts student who begins this wizarding adventure in their fifth year, and will need to catch up to the other students in the grade.
