Rumour: Hogwarts Legacy Developer’s Eye on Next Project

Hogwarts Legacy developer Avalanche Software is already advertising job roles for the next AAA console game.

Rumour: Hogwarts Legacy Developer’s Eye on Next Project

Avalanche Software has released details of a job role that details their next project which sets to be an “unannounced AAA console title”. This comes hot off the heels of their latest major title Hogwarts Legacy which will be coming to PS4 and Xbox One on May 5th, as well as Nintendo Switch on July 25th.

The job listing was first reported by Game Rant which screenshot the original job listing mentioning the AAA console game, however if you visit the job listing now that line has since been removed. This could be because the job has been filled, a major adjustment in the role or maybe something they are still brewing.

Quidditch DLC or Sequel?

The open-world RPG Hogwarts Legacy was what many have been waiting for for years. A game that reimagined the wizarding world and introduced fresh storylines that you could explore upon broomstick or hippogriff. Many have hoped that a DLC may be in the works, maybe following the sizeable Quidditch pitch that didn’t quite get the gameplay we hoped. Warner Bros. has stated that they weren’t currently working on a DLC as for now. But that doesn’t mean that might be something in future.

Hogwarts Legacy currently has no Quidditch gameplay despite its pitch already in the game.
No Quidditch DLC has been announced but one can hope they will utilise the Quidditch Pitch already in the game.

Since the game’s great success, the developer could be working on a follow-up title. The Wizarding World has other projects in progress including a new HBO series based on the original books despite the recent controversy concerning the author’s involvement. Another title that might spur more Quidditch fever is the recent announcement of the “fast-paced online multiplayer game” Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions by Unbroken Studios. Apparently, the title has been in development for several years and will be published under Portkey Games. It recently held its playtest but seems to be held under secrecy due to its limited invitation and closed playtest nature.

With Hogwarts Legacy topping single-player viewership on Twitch during its launch and topping Playstation downloads in February, it would make sense that a new title could be on the horizon, a sequel.

The last-gen console release was pushed to May, which means it’s arriving in the same month as Switch exclusive title The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The Switch version however is arriving a couple of months later, so at least for Switch players gives you some breathing room between open-world titles.
