Considering it featured the work of legendary composer John Williams, it’s no surprise that the Harry Potter films are known for having some of the most iconic soundtracks in history.

No pressure then for the widely anticipated Hogwarts Legacy game, which itself has a brand new soundtrack to complete the magical atmosphere as you explore the many corridors and secrets of Hogwarts.

Better yet, the soundtrack is available right now – so if you’ve found yourself distracted by the songs when you should have been paying attention in Potions class, you can find that particular earworm and add some magical music to your own home.

Read on for everything you need to know about the Hogwarts Legacy soundtrack.

Who composed the Hogwarts Legacy soundtrack?

Chuck E Myers was the lead composer of the Hogwarts Legacy soundtrack, with composers Peter Murray and J Scott Rakozy also working on the music for the highly-anticipated game.

Myers is a long-time collaborator with developer Avalanche Software, having previously composed music for toys-to-life sandbox Disney Infinity and Pixar adaptations Cars 3: Driven to Win and Toy Story 3: The Video Game.

Murray has previously composed for romcoms Quest for Love and Beauty and the Billionaire, while Rakozy has worked in the sound department for acclaimed horror Hereditary.
