“There’s more real estate in a game”: Hogwarts Legacy is Superior to All 8 Daniel Radcliffe Harry Potter Movies in 1 Major Area
The enchanting world of Harry Potter has captured the hearts of fans worldwide, whether through J.K. Rowling’s books or the live-action film adaptations starring Daniel Radcliffe. However, in 2023, a new contender for the best adaptation emerged that promised to take the wizarding world to another height: Hogwarts Legacy.

Hogwarts Legacy is an action role-playing game set in the magical universe, where players can experience and explore the lobbies of the iconic Hogwarts School. Developers also believed that they could bring more depth to the wizarding world than movies.
Recreating J.K. Rowling’s Vision in Hogwarts Legacy
The Harry Potter films, starring Daniel Radcliffe, earned widespread affection and were able to capture the essence of J.K. Rowling’s Books. However, with Hogwarts Legacy, developers at Avalanche Software aimed to surpass them in one crucial aspect: loyalty to the original source material and the grand nature of its world-building.

In an interview, Game Director Alan Tew and Senior Environment Artist Boston Madsen shed light on the game’s development process. When asked about their inspiration from the movies, both explained that during development, they were concerned that following live film adaptation would limit the game’s depth as movies had fixed sets and runtime limitations. So, they focused more on the freedom provided by the books. Tew said:
It’s like, okay, this is like the thing that I saw in the films, I recognize this tower, that tower, recognize this common room. So we want recognition. But we also want it to be really fun to play. And it seems like a lot of times, what would reconcile those arguments were the books, because the written descriptions would give us a little bit of wiggle room.

Adding to Tew’s point, Madsen explained that in the game, players can explore the seamless, interconnected world that will closely follow the depth found in Rowling’s books:
Well, I mean, there’s more real estate in a game too, than a movie. As Alan said in his intro, we actually get a link. A movie, you have these disparate sets. They are separate. But in a game, we get to link them together. And actually piece the puzzle together. And that’s where, in the books, we can lean on that.
Hogwarts Legacy allows players an evolving storyline that can changed with their choices and actions. This not only creates a deeper connection with the characters but also shows the wizarding world from a different perspective, a little closer to the original source materials.

Hogwarts Legacy has not only met but exceeded the expectations of fans. This proves that video games have the capability to capture the complex world of J.K. Rowling’s Books and can provide a deeper narrative from the film adaptation.
While Daniel Radcliffe’s Harry Potter movies have left a huge mark on popular culture, the game has set a new standard for experiencing the magic of Hogwarts by expanding the beloved world of Harry Potter with RPG elements.
