Hogwarts Legacy doesn't need Quidditch – there's loads to do already

Hogwarts Legacy - flying round the Quidditch pitch

The pointed absence of Quidditch in Hogwarts Legacy was a blow we could all see coming. This news was a bitter pill for many Harry Potter fans to swallow, myself included – the wizarding sport played a large role in Harry's own time at Hogwarts, so it's understandable that we were keen to get chasing the Golden Snitch ourselves. With the recent announcement that Unbroken Games is working on a standalone Quidditch game, though, many fans took to Reddit to share suspicions that Quidditch Champions is essentially cut content from the open-world RPG.

It's not like Hogwarts Legacy developer Avalanche Software is retconning it out of existence. Perched on my first rickety broom, I fly around the expansive Quidditch pitch that sits proudly on the school grounds, and after swooping through the stands and diving back down again, I eavesdrop on some bitterly-annoyed fellow students as they discuss why we can't play: it's all Professor Black's fault for canceling that year's tournament. Having met him earlier on, it's not too hard to imagine the bad-tempered Headmaster making unpopular decisions.
