File:Hogwarts Legacy Review - The Final Verdict-2

When it comes to the combat, however, Hogwarts Legacy is an absolute win. The game’s quest design is fairly standard, and it often fails to go all-in with its choice and consequence mechanics, and yet, even so, it manages to retain your interest while you’re doing quests on a consistent basis- and the combat is vastly responsible for that.

It starts out fairly simple, giving you a basic attacking spell and the ability to block incoming attacks, but the deeper you get into the game, the progressively more complex and dynamic the combat system gets. You’re constantly picking up and learning new spells and abilities, and when the combat is in full flow and you’re having to juggle different spells, blocks, dodges, and potions together, things feel excellent.
