Hogwarts Legacy Experiences Further Delays For PlayStation 4 and Xbox One Launch

A recent announcement in the official Hogwarts Legacy discord revealed that the game needs more time to deliver the game on older consoles. With an initial release date of April 4, 2023, for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, this date has been pushed back one month to May 5, 2023. Currently, this delay only applies to these two consoles, as there have been no further updates on whether the Nintendo Switch will receive a delay.

The official Hogwarts Legacy Twitter revealed this information shortly after, confirming this announcement. However, further information on why this delay is occurring has yet to be released.

As of now, Hogwarts Legacy is still open to play for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox X|S players since its launch on February 7, 2023. The Nintendo Switch has yet to get another official delay, with its launch still set for July 25, 2023. While the Switch may also experience this in response, this announcement focused solely on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, meaning there may be future posts regarding the handheld console.
