Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3 have been constant topics of discussion for quite some time, which may be why Hogwarts Legacy have slipped our minds. If you’ve been eyeing the Harry Potter RPG but the cost was the primary concern, this is your prime opportunity to snag the game at its current discounted price.
As per a recent tweet from the official Hogwarts Legacy account, all Digital Editions of the game are currently on sale. With this discount, PC players can purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition via Epic Games Store or Steam for a reduced price of $48.99, which is notably lower than the original price of $69.99. Additionally, the Standard Edition is also up for grabs at a discounted rate of $41.99, down from its initial cost of $59.99.

For PlayStation 4 users, the Standard Edition is now accessible for $41.99, a markdown from the original $59.99 price. On PlayStation 5, the same Standard Edition is available at $48.99, down from the previous $69.99. Curiously, Standard Editions for the Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S are still retailing at $59.99 and $69.99, respectively, whereas the Digital Deluxe Edition has been discounted from $79.99 to $55.99.
Unfortunately, Nintendo Switch owners will have to enviously watch on the sidelines as they patiently await the game’s release on November 14.
Gamers looking to add the game to their library should act promptly to secure their purchase before the current sale expires. For PC versions, the sale is accessible on both Epic Games Store and Steam until September 7. Meanwhile, Xbox owners have a mere three days remaining to capitalize on the offer, and PlayStation users must complete their purchase by September 6 before the offer elapses.
Given the ongoing sale, it would be wise to opt for the Digital Deluxe Edition over the Standard Edition. This way, you can have the added benefit of acquiring a Dark Arts Garrison Hat, along with the Dark Arts Pack, which includes a Thestral Mount, a Dark Arts Cosmetic Set, and a Dark Arts Battle Arena.
Hogwarts Legacy is currently the best-selling game of the year, so buying it at this time is certainly not a bad idea. Yet, if you’ve patiently waited this long, it only makes sense to hold out a little longer until the holiday season, when Warner Bros. Games might offer a much bigger discount, such as 50% off.
Choosing to purchase Hogwarts Legacy now might mean forfeiting the opportunity to play either Starfield or Baldur’s Gate 3 on PS5 for most people. Both Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3 offer a more rewarding RPG experience when compared to Hogwarts Legacy, which tends to become monotonous after a certain point, relying heavily on the nostalgia embedded in its lore to retain a player’s interest.
We can only hope that the rumored sequel will see Warner Bros. Games add a little more creativity to the open-world game.
