We've finally got some new screenshots of Hogwarts Legacy running on Nintendo Switch, and let's just say it looks about as good as you were probably expecting.

It's been a long time coming, but Hogwarts Legacy is now just a few weeks away from releasing on Nintendo Switch. Initially releasing on Xbox Series X/S, PC, and PS5 in February 2023, before then coming to last-gen consoles (PS4 & Xbox One) in May, Switch players will have had to wait until November 14 to finally get their invitation to Hogwarts. Luckily for them, the wait is almost over. But unluckily, one of the harsh realities of playing a game designed for current-gen on an older console it that you're likely to take a dip in graphical quality.

We've seen this a lot over the years, and the wizarding world is no exception. As you can see from the tweet below, the quality of Hogwarts Legacy's visuals has dipped quite a lot on Nintendo Switch - which is understandable considering it doesn't have the same power behind it as other current-gen consoles.
