Hogwarts Legacy is almost finally here. After years of waiting, speculation, and excitement, the time is upon us. With so much anticipation and with reviews of the game claiming this to be the best Harry Potter game ever made, it’s understandable you want to dive straight in.

With the launch this week, and undoubtedly many of you taking time out of work to play the game, finding out exactly when you can jump in is vital. Luckily, we have the release times for Hogwarts Legacy for you, and if you’re wondering what they are, simply read on ahead.

Disclaimer: While the creator of the Harry Potter franchise was not directly involved in the creation of Hogwarts Legacy, their comments on social media around transgender people are hurtful and dangerous given the size of their platform. 

We’d implore you to read our explainer of the controversy so far, and consider supporting trans rights charities where possible.

What Is The Release Time For Hogwarts Legacy?

If you’ve picked up the Digital Deluxe edition of Hogwarts Legacy, one of the perks is being able to get 72 hours of early access ahead of its official launch. This means players can jump into the game on February 7, three days before its wide release on February 10.

For console and PC players, the release times for Hogwarts Legacy are slightly different. For anyone playing on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S, it’s been confirmed that the game will be launching at midnight in your region.

For anyone on a PC, things are slightly different. Hogwarts Legacy will be available to launch at 10 am PST / 1 pm EST. This means you will be able to dive into the game at the respective time in your region.

These times are applicable to the Digital Deluxe edition of Hogwarts Legacy launching on February 7. There has been no word on what the release times for the standard edition of the game will be but we imagine it will be fairly similar. We’ll be sure to update this guide as soon as we learn more.
