This Thursday, September 1st is synonymous with back to school for most Muggles but also for wizards and witches. To celebrate this very special day, a broadcast was held live for the famous BackToHogwarts . It was devoted to goodies but also to video games from the Harry Potter universe. The opportunity to watch a brand new trailer for Hogwarts Legacy The Legacy of Hogwarts.
It was the game's community manager, Chandler Wood, who made an exclusive announcement live from Harry Potter Park in Florida. He started by showing us the gameplay trailer that we all already know, but many new details were then revealed.
A larger overview of common rooms
The second part of the trailer was very surprising since we were treated to precise images of the 4 common rooms of Hogwarts: Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin and Hufflepuff.
Gryffindor
To enter the interior of the common room of Gryffindor, it will be necessary to give the correct password to the famous painting of the Fat Lady. This room is located in one of the highest towers of Hogwarts.
Slytherin
The entrance to the common room is hidden by a stone serpent. Just like in the books, it is located in the depths of Hogwarts and looks like a gloomy dungeon. Some bay windows allow you to see the Lac Noir.
Hufflepuff
Towards the kitchens is the Hufflepuff common room, never before represented in the cinema or in a game. Very cozy, the ceiling allows the sunlight to pass through.
Ravenclaw
Yes. You will have to answer a riddle before you can enter this emblematic common room, also located in one of the tallest towers of Hogwarts!
Log in to Wizarding World to import your House and Wand!
As we said in our previous article, it will indeed be possible to connect your Wizarding World FanClub account to your Warner Bros Games account in order to import your House and your Wand (but also probably your Patronus). This will allow you to complete an online questionnaire (if not already done) to determine your house, the composition of your wand, and the magical form of your Patronus.
We do not yet know how the choice of the house will be carried out in the game directly if you do not connect your account but it is possible that it will be done with a simple click. The advantage of registering and linking your Wizarding World account will be precisely to answer specific questions to really create the wizard or witch that suits you.

By linking your Harry Potter Fan Club account to your WB Games account, you will not only be able to retrieve your House and Wand data directly from Hogwarts Legacy, but also exclusive items:
- A magnificent wizard's robe in the colors of your house,

Finally, Chandler Wood confirms that the developers took heavy inspiration from the Harry Potter theme park in Florida to create a few Hogwarts Legacy locations like these sorts of ruins that show, again, what appears to be Morgana.
