The Nintendo Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy will launch on July 25. “We see that as probably a much bigger install base and a fan base that, as relates to the franchise of Harry Potter, which obviously appeals to a very big audience globally, and in markets like Japan where Nintendo has a big footprint and Harry Potter skews very strongly in terms of popularity, we see a much bigger upside probably from that release, certainly than the Gen 8 ”. JB Perrette (President & CEO of Discovery Streaming & International) added in the earnings call that Nintendo has an even bigger footprint in Japan where the Harry Potter franchise is also extremely popular. Hogwarts Legacy previously became WB Games’ biggest launch ever but this could still be only the tip of the iceberg as the company prepares the next release on the console where it believes it will have a greater install base.
“Hogwarts Legacy has amassed more than $1 billion in retail sales and over 15 million units sold worldwide to date, and today the team is launching the game on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One platforms,” said Warner Bros. These sales have happened as the game has only launched on PC and next-gen consoles thus far. Hogwarts Legacy hit another major sales milestone this week when it was announced that over 15 million copies have been sold and it has now topped over $1 billion in sales.
has said that although the latest record-breaking sales numbers are important, it has high hopes for the forthcoming Nintendo Switch launch.
