The Nintendo Switch 2 edition of Hogwarts Legacy will feature enhanced graphics, quicker load times, and take full advantage of the new mouse controls as well.

But there's more. Playing on Nintendo Switch 2 also improves frame rates, textures, shadows, and even the color saturation of Hogwarts and its surroundings—see for yourself in the trailer below:
As for those mouse controls? We're just as curious. For now, developer Warner Bros. hasn't shared more details, but we suspect the new mouse functionality might be useful during spell-casting.
Following the pattern of other Switch 1 titles, owners of Hogwarts Legacy on the original system can upgrade to the enhanced version for $10.
Hogwarts Legacy is an immersive, open-world action RPG set in the wizarding world of the 1800s. Starting as a fifth-year student, players explore new and familiar locations, encounter magical creatures, brew potions, master spellcasting, upgrade talents, and customize their character to become the witch or wizard they aspire to be. It launches on Nintendo Switch 2 the same day the console arrives, June 5.
We thoroughly enjoyed Hogwarts Legacy, giving it a 9/10 in our IGN Hogwarts Legacy review, stating: "In almost every way, Hogwarts Legacy is the Harry Potter RPG we've always wanted to play."
