Hogwarts Legacy — here's everything new with the free summer update

Hogwarts Legacy just received its most substantial free update to date, introducing some new content and long-requested features to the game. Developer Avalanche Software rolled out the hefty 55GB update to all platforms — PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC  — on June 6, more than a year after the game's initial release. Here's everything new you can expect to see when you hop back into the Wizarding World again. 

One of the biggest additions with Hogwarts Legacy's summer update is photo mode, which will let players capture and customize their own in-game screenshots. It brings with it a lot of the features we've come to expect from photo modes in other games, like the option to change the time and season, set up characters in different poses and outfits, and apply different frames and filters, including some inspired by Hogwarts' famous houses.
