Hogwarts Legacy turned into a huge commercial success for Warner Bros when it launched on PC and current-gen consoles back in February this year.

So, if you pre-purchase the game before its launch, you will receive the onyx hippogriff mount and a felix felicis potion recipe as your in-game bonus items. That’s a tall order for Hogwarts Legacy, but the game is already speeding toward that goal.Although the game was originally launched a few months ago, Warner Bros is still offering pre-order bonuses for users that plan to play Hogwarts Legacy on last-gen consoles. After all, Elden Ring has sold 17.5 million copies as of November 2022, and those numbers only increased thanks to Elden Ring’s performance at The Game Awards. More importantly, we’ll have to see if the game continues to dethrone Elden Ring’s sales milestones. While Hogwarts Legacy has experienced a profitable first week of life, only time will tell if that pattern continues. Will Hogwarts Legacy‘s slightly more positive critical reception hook gamers who were on the fence about the title due to its gameplay or the controversy surrounding it? The game has also yet to be released for PS4, Xbox One, and Switch, which could end up being a big deal for its long-term success (especially if those last-gen versions run well). There were clearly quite a few people waiting to play this game, though the next few weeks and months will likely tell the tale. The game also quickly shot up Steam’s concurrent user charts (even during the pre-release Early Access period). A good month before Hogwarts Legacy launched, the game was the top-selling pre-order on Steam and PlayStation, and was the second-highest top-selling game on Xbox (according to Forbes). Mind you, Hogwarts Legacy was shaping up to be a sales success even before it was released. That probably sounds like the result of the Confundus Charm on our brains, but, as PCGamesN notes, that is actually the result of WB Games selling early access standard, launch day standard, early access deluxe, and launch day deluxe copies. In fact, the game sold so well on Steam that it is now the first, second, third, and fourth-best-selling products on that digital distribution platform. Players can buy both games digitally, and, according to sites such as PCGamesN, Hogwarts Legacy is just as popular as a digital title. Of course, those aforementioned calculations only account for physical versions of Hogwarts Legacy and Elden Ring. At launch, Elden Ring was the fastest-selling FromSoftware title the world over ( including in the UK). Granted, that’s an early record to surpass, but it’s still a significant one.
