GamesĪfter finishing the main story, there’s still quite a lot you can do. Hogwarts is a gorgeous castle with decades of history. Be warned, there are mild story spoilers ahead with the names of the chapters. In order to move the story along and eventually complete it, you’ll also need to complete special assignments from professors, which means delving into side quests. Some require minimal effort, while others weave you into the story with a bit of leg work. Hogwarts Legacy has 12 main story quests for you to complete, with each broken down into multiple sidequests. Increasing the difficulty, completing more side missions, or spending brain power lollygagging around the massive castle’s campus, will bloat the time of your experience to around 50 hours.

That number isn’t as permanent as an Avada Kedavra spell and there’s a lot that can add time to your play-through. Hogwarts Legacy will take most players between 20 and 25 hours to fully complete. But a video game can’t bring you that level of immersion, so Hogwarts Legacy has had to cut down on some of the extracurricular activities. Normally, completing a full Hogwarts education takes eight grueling years, filled with fighting dementors, mastering your casting abilities, and even learning a few phrases in parseltongue.
