Hogwarts Legacy Fan? 17 Magical Games You NEED To ...

And let's be real, Hogwarts Legacy was a *big* deal. For many Harry Potter fans, it was the RPG they'd been dreaming of for years. Immersing yourself in that world, crafting spells, and exploring familiar locations... it's a powerful draw. But even if you loved Hogwarts Legacy, it's worth remembering the controversy surrounding J.K. Rowling's transphobic remarks. While she wasn't directly involved in the game's development, her financial stake in its success is undeniable. If you're interested in learning more about the impact of her comments, we've got an in-depth article you can check out.

Now, let's get to the games! I've compiled a list of 17 titles that share similarities with Hogwarts Legacy, focusing on either specific gameplay mechanics or that overall feeling of immersion. And yes, I know, you probably want to jump right back into something magical. So, with that said, let’s highlight a couple of prime examples.

First up is **Oblivion Remastered**, slated for release on April 22, 2025. Developed by Bethesda, this RPG is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Now, the original *Oblivion* was a groundbreaking game, and this remaster promises to elevate it to a whole new level. Think updated graphics, improved character models, refined dialogue – the works. The core story, an epic quest sparked by the emperor's murder, remains the same. But beyond that, you'll find five distinct guilds, bustling cities, and a vast open world ripe for exploration. And for those who enjoyed the magical combat in Hogwarts Legacy? You can become a formidable mage in *Oblivion Remastered*, wielding a wide range of spells. Plus, the modding community is already gearing up, so expect even more content down the line. [See on Fanatical](URL to Fanatical) (Disclaimer: Fanatical and GameSpot are both owned by Fandom.)

Then there's **Immortals Fenyx Rising**, from Ubisoft. Released a while back (December 3, 2020), it's available on pretty much everything: PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X|S, PC, and even the Nintendo Switch. It's an action-adventure title that some have compared to *The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild*. While it's more combat-focused than Hogwarts Legacy, it still offers that sense of exploration and puzzle-solving that many players appreciated. You'll be battling mythological creatures and unlocking new areas as you go. The combat is faster-paced, but easy to pick up. [See on Steam](URL to Steam)
