Hogwarts Legacy Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is scheduled for both physical and digital release globally via the Nintendo eShop and retail stores on June 5, 2025.

With renewed graphical fidelity tailored for the Nintendo Switch 2, the game aims to deliver an even deeper, more immersive wizarding experience. For more details on pre-orders and upgrade discounts, visit the official Hogwarts Legacy website or check the Nintendo eShop on your device.
