Hogwarts Legacy is one of the most anticipated games of early 2023, and as its release approaches, we're getting glimpses of what fans will look forward to in the RPG. Just last night, the cast list for the main characters was posted to Twitter, and players will be introduced to another member of the Weasley family.
We knew at least one Weasley was appearing in the game, however, developer Avalanche Software added that there would be further "familiar names" to find in the halls of Hogwarts.
Funnily enough, the game doesn't seem to be straying from some of the darker themes of the books, letting players grapple with difficult moral decisions and even enact the series of Unforgivable Curses against other students.

Of course, the announcement that Simon Pegg would be playing the Headmaster of Hogwarts arrived yesterday, but now the rest of the central cast has been confirmed:
Luke Youngblood appeared in the original series of films as the Gryffindor student and Quidditch commentator Lee Jordan, but he's playing a prankster Ravenclaw student here. The denotations "Voice 1/Voice 2" pertain to the type of voice that the player can select as there are no gender restrictions in the game's character creator. However, there is widespread criticism surrounding Sebastian Croft's involvement as he is an activist for LGBT refugees and Hogwarts Legacy has been weighed down by author J K Rowling's transphobic opinions.
