Fans of Hogwarts Legacy are incredibly excited to renew their acquaintance with the magical world of Hogwarts once the RPG arrives later in the year. The game will focus on a student's life at the famed wizarding school.

With the promise of a properly fleshed-out castle, one wonders if the game will allow players the option to fly. There are several ways to fly in the Harry Potter universe, one of the most common means being the broomsticks.

It is mainly used as a means of transportation and for the popular wizarding sport of Quidditch. Potterheads will remember the iconic Flying Ford Anglia of the Weasleys and riding the Thestrals when Harry Potter and his friends went to London in 1996.

Given that the game will possibly have a detailed representation of Hogwarts and its students' lives, one wonders if flying will be allowed in-game through various methods.


Players wonder if flying around Hogwarts will be a possibility in Hogwarts Legacy

Both brooms and mounts have been showcased in Hogwarts Legacy's reveal trailer that came out two years ago in 2020. Players can see two characters in the trailer working with their broomsticks. This makes sense as Quidditch is an integral part of the school life at Hogwarts.

In the Harry Potter universe, broomsticks are enchanted to fly used for transportation and sports. Different manufacturing companies make their distinct products with their own advantages.

Players will love to participate in these Quidditch matches on their broom by representing their respective Houses and bringing them victory. Players will possibly unlock the option of the broomsticks by finishing the necessary tutorials for playing Quidditch.

The trailer also shows students riding a Hippogriff. The magical creature was first introduced in Prisoner of Azkaban when Harry bonded with Buckbeak and rode him around the school grounds. These are incredibly proud creatures that look like a horse with wings and the head of an eagle.

Given that the developers have emphasized taming magical creatures, the option of bonding with and taming a Hippogriff may feature within the game. This will open up the option to fly around Hogwarts on a mount.

The mechanics of flying in Hogwarts Legacy can be fully fleshed out so that players can freely roam outside the castle without any limits. Developers can also add Easter eggs and collectibles for players to find while exploring the school grounds while flying.

The option to fly was there in previous Harry Potter titles, and players will be thrilled to see them designed adequately within Hogwarts Legacy. It remains to be seen if and how the developers will implement this within the game.

Hogwarts Legacy is an upcoming RPG based on the world created by J. K. Rowling while trying to chart its own new story revolving around the hidden truth of the wizarding world that players will try to uncover. Players will get to hone their magical abilities through mastering spells, brewing potions, and taming fantastical creatures.
