One of the reasons why the upcoming Hogwarts Legacy is such an exciting game is because of the time period it's exploring. Instead of retreading the ground that was already covered in the books and films, Hogwarts Legacy is set in the 1800s, allowing the game developers to tell an entirely original story in the Wizarding World.
Since Hogwarts Legacy is set in the 1800s, it's no surprise that it won't feature iconic characters from the Harry Potter universe like the titular Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, or Hermione Granger. But while these memorable characters from the Harry Potter books and movies won't be featured in the Hogwarts Legacy video game, that doesn't mean that their ancestors won't make appearances. In fact, it's already been teased that Hogwarts Legacy will feature the Weasley family in some capacity.
Playing Quidditch May Not Be Part of Hogwarts Legacy
While discussing the Hogwarts Legacy companions and other characters that players will meet in the game, Avalanche Software said, «You may even come across some familiar names, like a Weasley or two.» The Weasley family is one of the oldest magical families in existence, so it makes sense that they would be featured in Hogwarts Legacy. They will most likely be featured in the Gryffindor house, so anyone interested in seeing them may want to join up with Gryffindor after they've been sorted by the Sorting Hat.
It's entirely possible that other famous magical families may be represented in Hogwarts Legacy as well, though if they are, they haven't been mentioned yet. Regardless, it will be interesting to see how the Weasley family is represented in Hogwarts Legacy, and hardcore Harry Potter fans will no doubt be excited to meet new members of the family.
