Are Harry, Ron, & Hermione in Hogwarts Legacy? Answered

In Hogwarts Legacy, you’ll finally have the opportunity to live out your wizarding dreams, as the game transports you to the wizarding world of Hogwarts.

Here is everything you need to know about if Harry, Ron, and Hermione are in Hogwarts Legacy.

Are the Harry Potter Characters in Hogwarts Legacy?

Unfortunately for fans of the Harry Potter books and movies, no, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger won’t be in the game. In fact, no wizard or witch we’ve seen in the modern day, including the villains, will be in the game, as it actually takes place 100 years prior to the events of the subject matter it’s based on. As such, it would make it impossible for anyone we know to be present.

Instead, Hogwarts Legacy will follow a character created fifth year student that is tasked with trying to stop a rebellion. According to what we know of the plot so far, only they possess the mysterious key to an “ancient secret that threatens to tear the wizarding world apart,” as they’re capable of wielding mysterious ancient magic that could help save the world.

Before you feel slighted, a selection of familiar characters not bound by humanity do make an appearance, such as the Sorting Hat and Nearly Headless Nick.
