Hogwarts Legacy’s a massive success, and despite a recent delay for last-gen console versions of the game, it still boasts incredible sales numbers. A recent tweet by the official Hogwarts Legacy Twitter account supports these numbers with some newly revealed Hogwarts Legacy stats pertaining to the game and its various elements.

The most noteworthy statistic on the list is the number of hours played across all copies of the game, with a whopping total of 406 million hours.





To put that into perspective, that’s about 46,000 calendar years’ worth of playtime.

The statistics also reveal that 674 million plants were grown, and players took down over 2.2 billion Dark Wizards.

2.25 billion wizards genocided, this must be why there are so few wizards by the time of Harry Potter

 

[Deerock71]

Reee finding out how significant and important they are.

 

[Rival]

406 million fucks not given about the bullshit.

 

[TheDraconian]

 

[Davesky]

So toxic.

 

[Pejo]

It's a great game, deserves the sales and the numbers. I only wish it hadn't turned into an Ubisoft Collect-a-thon about halfway in. I could have done with less than half of the number of Merlin Trials and those garbage underground "dungeons" with a simple puzzle and a chest at most.

I know it's optional, but still it's low quality padding, regardless if I play them all or not.

 

[Tomi]

Sales?

 

[diffusionx]

Is this WB's most successful game ever? Makes you wonder why Rocksteady went down the liveshit path.

 

[VulcanRaven]

Not suprising. Its a big budget Harry Potter game so of course its going to sell well

 

[ckaneo]

That's cool, but how about:

A) Stop forcing me make accounts to play games
B) Stop tracking my play unless I give explicit consent

i really loved the game. but yes - the further you get from hogwarts the more mediocre the game becomes...

But how many gallons of protestor's tears have been collected?

[SJRB]

How convenient of them to not mention how many thousand, if not millions of trans people were harmed because people played this videogame.

[feynoob]

You won brother. The game is great.

 

[Pagusas]

Seriously hope Avalanche had bonus's based on performance built into their contract.

 

[Rox598]

So how's that boycott going??

 

[Rubik8]

Pretty sure my kids have contributed most of that. I have 3 that are addicted.

 

[Markio128]

I’ve spent around 12 hours in the game now and not long had my broom. It’s a great game and I really enjoy it. I especially like all of the customisation options you get with clothes. There seems to be a decent amount of depth to the game.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

ok...this is getting tiresome.

 

[DadEggs]

Now that the honeymoon period is over.

Is the game actually worth my time?

only you could know that.

 

[Roufianos]

Once the charm of exploring Hogwarts wore off, I actually felt like it was everything I dislike about open word games. Super dull narrative and characters also.

Still, happy for it to do well if it upsets the SJWs.

 

[DadEggs]

only you could know that.

Was it worth yours?

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Was it worth yours?

i like to draw architecture. for that alone it was worth it.

 

[Revolutionary]

 

[gow3isben]

Why don’t they Just give sales numbers like normal people lol I don’t know how any of that compares to other games

 

[oji-san]

Great boycott!

 

[Putonahappyface]

 

[Saber]

We need sites to register the biggest boycott failure in history. Kids need to know what mental illness is.

 

[Nautilus]

Now that the honeymoon period is over.

Is the game actually worth my time?

It's high tier Ubisoft style game. Not the greatest game ever, but still really good.

I recommend, especially if it ever comes down in price.

If you are a Harry Potter fan, it's a must buy.

 

[Come On Tars]

do we have stats on the houses?

 

[whyman]

Now that the honeymoon period is over.

Is the game actually worth my time?

Yes. It does open up to reveal insane amount of “collectibles” eventually. But focus on playing the story and doing the things you like and ignore the rest. I love that there was so much to “collect” but I understand both sides.

That's cool, but how about:

B) Stop tracking my play unless I give explicit consent

pretty you gave consent when you installed, and played the game on your platform of choice. i don't know if they're using metrics from the game itself, but pretty sure the EULAs for Steam, PSN and Xbox include tracking of playtime and its shared with publishers.
