In terms of your outfit, Wizarding World members who link their accounts with the game will be able to grab a special robe, called the Fan-atic robe. Creating the your own unique character to the wizarding world will make the experience of playing the game even better! Hogwarts Legacy’s character creator is very detailed, different skin colors, hair types, freckles and even moles. (That information comes from an anonymous source inside the game studio and is familiar with development of the title.) That's a step towards representation and inclusion, and while it's still a binary system, it's one that is at least starting to broaden the spectrum of the human experience and reflect it in the virtual world, even the Wizarding one.Your Hogwarts Legacy character is what you make it. Players will then be able to select 'Witch' or 'Wizard' it's this choice that will determine how people refer to you in-game and which dorm you're assigned to.

So as Bloomberg reports, the inclusion of trans-friendly character creation in the game may be a step towards smoothing relations with angered Harry Potter fans.Īpparently, during character creation, players will be able to select a masculine or feminine voice, one that's not tied to whatever your character's face or body happens to look like.

The Devs behind Hogwarts Legacy are now caught in the middle. It's an ongoing conversation that shows little sign of either side budging or moving closer to a compromise. Those comments, which can be recounted here, were denounced by some members of the Harry Potter film franchise and the trans community at large, while other actors defended Rowling, who also had feminist allies with her.
