Two years after the release of Hogwarts Legacy, Warner Bros. and Avalanche Software appear to be preparing a new edition of the game. According to several sources, a Director's Cut version could soon be released, with all-new content. Planned for a possible release in 2025 or 2026, this update would offer players an extended experience, with several extra hours of gameplay. An announcement that is arousing the interest of fans of the magical world of Harry Potter.
Studio Avalanche Software recently released a major update to the game, introducing a PC modding creation kit. This addition allows players to modify existing content and imagine new quests and areas to explore. However, the publisher doesn't seem to be stopping there. A Bloomberg report has revealed that Warner Bros. is working on several projects related to the license, including a sequel to Hogwarts Legacy, but also an enrichment of the first opus. Insider Jason Schreier had already mentioned this possibility, and Tom Henderson was quick to confirm this information, evoking an addition of"10 to 15 hours of extra gameplay".
Although details of this Director's Cut version remain unclear, it would appear that the studio has finally opted for the integration of new narrative content, rather than simple cosmetic additions. This would mark an evolution for Hogwarts Legacy, which until now had only benefited from corrective updates and minor additional content. This new edition could also bridge the gap to the next opus, offering players a smoother transition to Hogwarts Legacy 2, which is still in development. To your controllers!
