Overview of the Glitch Encountered in Hogwarts Legacy
- A player in Hogwarts Legacy uncovers a peculiar glitch, enabling their character to swim through the air outside the castle, akin to a water bug.
- This discovery emerges as Hogwarts Legacy approaches its second anniversary on February 10, 2025.
In an intriguing twist on conventional gameplay, a Hogwarts Legacy player has recently uncovered a glitch that allows their character to move through the air in a swimming motion, rather than traditional flying. This whimsical anomaly appears almost like a glitch that could seamlessly blend into the magical realm of Harry Potter.
As the anniversary of Hogwarts Legacy draws near, now just a few months away, the game has enjoyed a successful run since its launch. Launching on February 10, 2023, it was met with positive reviews, receiving acclaim from both fans and critics. Although interest has waned slightly since its initial release, the game achieved a notable milestone, selling an impressive 12 million units within just two weeks of its debut. Despite its commercial and critical success, the game has also faced various glitches, including this latest discovery.
Hogwarts Legacy Player Glides Through the Air
Game glitched and now I’m swimming/flying through the air? by u/amarquis_1 in HarryPotterGame
This quirky glitch was showcased in a gameplay video posted on Reddit by user amarquis_1. Viewers can clearly see the character performing a swimming movement just a few feet above the ground in an area outside Hogwarts Castle. While glitches involving characters swimming on land have been reported in the past, they typically execute only after swimming in water, and they rarely elevate the character to such an altitude. The player did not provide details about what triggered this specific bug, but it is worth noting that water surrounds the narrow land bridge above which their character is floating, yet the water’s surface lies significantly lower.
According to another player who experienced a similar bug, this phenomenon may be attributed to a loading error. They suggested that returning to the game’s menu and re-entering might help revert the character back to solid ground. In a playful twist, other gamers have engaged in fun speculative theories, attributing the character’s gravity-defying acrobatics to magical elements such as a unique interpretation of the leviosa charm or an overly enthusiastic dose of billywig stings.
The emergence of this glitch comes at a pivotal moment, as reports suggest that Hogwarts Legacy is not only planning a DLC release but also a potential sequel. While detailed information remains scarce for both projects, there are rumors that fans can anticipate the DLC before the year’s end.
