If you\u2019ve found yourself getting caught up in the hype surrounding Hogwarts Legacy<\/a>, you might be wondering whether the new Harry Potter prequel game has any multiplayer gameplay.<\/p>\n

After all, when you think of that iconic school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, you think of key friendship groups like Harry, Ron and Hermione, and you picture classrooms full to the brim with robe-wearing students.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s easy to picture a game where players team-up for co-op adventures in the Wizarding World, playing as numerous Hogwarts classmates, or perhaps even duelling against each other in a player-versus-player (PvP) way.<\/p>\n

However, if you\u2019re hoping for a multiplayer experience in Hogwarts Legacy, you\u2019re going to be disappointed, it seems. Keep on reading to learn why.<\/p>\n

Will Hogwarts Legacy have multiplayer?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

No, Hogwarts Legacy will not have multiplayer.<\/p>\n

The developers confirmed in the game\u2019s official Frequently Asked Questions page<\/a>, \u201cHogwarts Legacy is a single player experience and does not have online or co-op gameplay.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some players will still hold out hope, though. After all, it wouldn\u2019t be unheard of for a game to launch as a single-player title only to add multiplayer support later on.<\/p>\n

For example, Ghost of Tsushima was a solo outing until its post-launch Legends DLC came out, allowing players to team up with each other some time after the game\u2019s original launch.<\/p>

However, we wouldn\u2019t recommend holding your breath for Hogwarts Legacy multiplayer, considering that the FAQ page was very clear about the developers\u2019 single-player intentions.<\/p>\n

If you are looking for a Harry Potter adventure where you can explore Hogwarts with a friend, remember that the LEGO Harry Potter games exist and they allow you to do exactly that. You can buy those games below if you don\u2019t already have them.<\/p>\n
