People Are Playing Hogwarts Legacy Early — How Are They Doing This?

Firstly, it should be noted that many people have gotten the chance to have their hands on the game early because they may have been reviewing the game or otherwise have been allowed the opportunity to play the game early by Avalanche Software and Warner Bros. Games. This means that they would then have the ability to play the game much earlier than others. However, one of the main reasons why people are playing earlier is the fact that deluxe edition owners get the game earlier on February 7, which is this Tuesday instead of Friday.

However, some of those pre-ordering physical editions of the deluxe may find that from certain retailers the game could arrive earlier than usual and therefore might’ve had the game earlier than intended. This used to be a much more common occurrence in which online retailers would send the games out and shipping services would actually deliver them quicker than the day it was meant to arrive.

Is It Too Late to Get the Chance to Play Hogwarts Legacy Early?

At the moment it is not too late to play the game early. You can still buy the Deluxe edition of Hogwarts Legacy on your digital stores such as the PlayStation Store and play the game the second that it reaches Tuesday, February 7 and you can begin your playthrough of the title.

There have been many questions floating around leading up to the game’s release, even people wondering if Hogwarts Legacy has VR support included.

Hogwarts Legacy is scheduled for release on February 10, 2023, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
