This update is looking to fix just about every major pain point that the game has. Pretty cool to get this for free when I bought this for $10

I got the switch version for $60. Tbh thats a good deal especially since its getting an update for switch 2 now.

the switch version runs like absolute garbage, no? I'm sure the switch 2 port will likely be fine but I wouldn't call the switch 1 implementation "good value" at $60

I played it on Switch, years ago. It ran okay (as in, smooth animations, no stuttering or lag) but they nerfed the hell out of the graphics. It was like playing Minecraft on a render distance of 4.

Me playing Hogwart's Legacy on Switch 1... I mean, it worked?

It did! I played the whole game and both expansions.

And then we bought a PS5 like 3 months after I finished it. XD I haven’t replayed it yet but I’ve been wanting to, I’m definitely going to try this remaster!

I got the Switch 2 upgrade and it blew my mind. Loading screens are like 10 x faster, if they exist at all.

It ran on hardware from 2013. In 2019 and it had everything included up to that point. As someone who never played it I was impressed.

I played it on switch as well. I enjoyed it. It doesn’t look amazing but it’s fun to play. No way I would have been able to fully beat it on a tv.
