Hogwarts Legacy is getting an official graphics overhaul, exclusive to one console

Suppose you missed the big video game news yesterday. In that case, you must live under a rock, because Sony finally announced the PlayStation 5 Pro and, as part of their showcase, they said that Hogwarts Legacy is getting upgraded graphics.

Sony discussed the console and it’s upscaling possibilities, the new 8K support, plus some fancy Wi-Fi connections, but the star of the show is ‘PS5 Pro Enhanced’ games.

Sony has a huge hit on their hands with Astro Bot, a guaranteed Game of the Year contender

There’s a list of games, most of which are first-party titles, however, some other bestsellers appeared and were even shown off in a sizzle reel.

Other games included are titles like Alan Wake 2, The First Descendant, and the upcoming Assassin’s Creed: Shadows.

Getting a PS5 Pro Enhanced version will be the Harry Potter sensation, Hogwarts Legacy.

We got to see a snippet of footage that showed more detail in the ‘Enhanced’ version of the game and had it running at a set 60FPS, this includes options for ray-tracing turned on, too.

Of course, to get your hands on this version of the game, you’ll have to buy a PS5 Pro and that’s not exactly cheap.

In the UK, the console will cost £699.99 without a disc drive, so if you need that you’ll have to stump up an extra £99.

Is it worth it? Well, that depends on your passion for tech, and for Harry Potter. If you want to replay the game in the best way possible, then you’ll need to invest heavily in Sony’s new baby.

There’s no denying just how gorgeous the game looks when running with all bells and whistles turned on and, outside of owning a gaming PC, this is the best option for console players.

Your spells will look better, the action will be smoother, but your wallet will be significantly lighter.
