"Switch 1 Players Upgrade to Switch 2 for Enhanced Hogwarts Legacy Experience"

The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Hogwarts Legacy is set to elevate your gaming experience with enhanced visuals, quicker loading times, and innovative mouse controls. As showcased in a captivating comparison teaser trailer, the Switch 2 allows for seamless transitions between areas like Hogsmeade, eliminating the loading screens that were present in the original game.

But the upgrades don't stop there. The Switch 2 version enhances the frame rate, textures, shadows, and even the color saturation of the enchanting world of Hogwarts. Dive into the trailer below to witness these improvements for yourself:

Regarding the new mouse controls, we're as curious as you are. While Warner Bros. hasn't provided detailed information yet, we speculate that these controls might enhance spell-casting gameplay.

Similar to other games on the original Switch, owners of Hogwarts Legacy can upgrade to the enhanced Switch 2 version for just $10.

Hogwarts Legacy is an immersive, action-packed, open-world role-playing game set in the 1800s wizarding world. Starting as a fifth-year student, players will journey through both new and familiar locations, encounter magical beasts, craft potions, master spell-casting, upgrade talents, and customize their character to become the ultimate witch or wizard. The game will launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same day as the console's release, June 5.

We thoroughly enjoyed Hogwarts Legacy, awarding it a 9/10 in our IGN Hogwart's Legacy review, where we stated, "in almost every way, Hogwarts Legacy is the Harry Potter RPG [we've] always wanted to play."
