What Harry Potter game deserves the “Best” title? Hogwarts Legacy, which has just been released, perhaps deserves this title. But before this game was released, there were other Harry Potter games that also deserved that title.
The Harry Potter franchise itself is now 22 years old. Apart from books, exploration of the wizarding world in the Harry Potter franchise has varied. Starting from television shows, feature films, food, drinks, games, and much more.
