The Oldest Harry Potter Characters Hogwarts Legacy Can Still Use

They require very specific types of care and students must be able to understand how to appropriately approach a Hippogriff, or perhaps how to survive a run-in with a Dragon. The trailer for the game already revealed some of the fantastic beasts students will come acr


The 66th Potions Championship was held in 1862, and the infamous Borgin and Burkes shop was established in Knockturn Alley in 1863 by Caractacus Burke. There were a few notable events in 1865: The Knight Bus was created, and Faris Spavin took over McPahil's position as Minister of Magic until 1903, serving the longest out of any other Minister. Additionally, the Ministry of Magic decided to relinquish full control of Gringotts Bank to the Goblins. In 1869, the 67th Potions Championship was h


The Pitch has also been featured in past games and it's a fun location to visit especially to create some form of mini-game surrounding the wizarding sport. It's sure to bring out the house pride in many f


Players won't be able to go through a full year at the famous school of sorcerers without playing Quidditch at some stage. To do so the Quidditch Pitch has to be available in the game, in all of its gl


According to the Hogwarts Legacy website, the core of the game will be based on J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World lore. Unsurprisingly, most of the characters developed in the Harry Potter series and Fantastic Beasts saga won't make an appearance. However, there are numerous references throughout the books, films, and extra pieces of lore content released by J.K. Rowling that suggest some character and side stories that could very well make it into the game. Dozens of characters that are mentioned in Harry Potter lore were alive during the 1800s, but due to the fact that players don't know the exact years that the game will take place in, the possibilities are close to endless. Most of the theorized candidates are mere mentions in lore, while others possess a powerful backstory, but they all represent good opportunities for the studio to develop some narratives and explore popular Harry Potter locations that fans would genuinely be excited ab


Other Ministers of the era include Dugald McPhail, who came up with the idea of the Knight Bus, an emergency means of transportation for stranded witches and wizards, and Faris Sparvin, the longest-ever serving Minister for Magic. Sparvin survived an assassination attempt and introduced one of the most significant pieces of legislation of the wizarding world: the Decree for the Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery. Although this wasn't enforced until 1875, which could be considered the late 1800s, it would make sense for this Minister to make an appearance, as there is reason to believe that the events that take place in Hogwarts Legacy are the ones that lead to this legislation being enfor


Regardless of how much lore the game producers decide to draw inspiration from, Hogwarts Legacy will introduce new characters and fresh storylines. According to the Hogwarts Legacy website, the new story in this game will be completely in line with existing Wizarding World lore, even if it is a new story free of J.K. Rowling's writing. The lore that is currently available stems not only from the initial Harry Potter novels, but also from excerpts written by J.K. Rowling that have been released online over the last few ye


Music may not seem like an incredibly important subject to study, but it is an optional class for students as they progress through their studies. It's also the sort of extracurricular activity that Hogwarts Legacy could turn into a fun video g


Although some of the stories and characters will be completely created by the studio, the writing that already exists is the best source of unofficial material fans should go to if they wish to come up with their own theories and predictions. It is likely players will receive a sneak peek and further details into gameplay features and story direction before the official release of the game, but until that happens, the possibilities will seem endless to any theory-crafting fan well-versed in the Wizarding World lore. _Hogwarts Legacy _ doesn't have an official release date yet, but it is likely that it won't be available until the second half of 2


A number of other Hogwarts students could very likely appear during this late stage of the era, such as Norvel Twonk, who later in life became famous for saving a Muggle child from a Manticore. Norvel could be introduced as a student obsessed with magical creatures who might offer the main character some guidance on taming and interacting with manticores, or offer side missions to earn special rewards by learning and caring for Harry Potter's magical creatur


The Hogwarts Legacy Story Guide Express was established in 1830, but Platform 9¾ was created in 1952. The Wizarding Schools Potions Championship is held every seven years, with the 65th being held in 1855, so it's possible the player could participate in one of these. Also in 1855, Violet Tillyman became the only witch to disappear using the Floo Network , scaring other witches and wizards away from that mode of transportation for months after the event. In 1858, Dugald McPhail became Minister of Magic for the next seven years, which was considered a peaceful time. The same year, Angus Buchanan became the only Squib to attend the sorting hat process at Hogwarts, only to be told he was a " good-hearted chap, but no wizard ," according to the Wizarding World webs
