The Hogwarts Legacy fans, today is your day! The official Summer 2024 update is now live on Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, introducing several new features including a photo mode along with many bug fixes.
As we mentioned recently, this update also brings the Haunted Shop mission to all versions of Hogwarts Legacy on Xbox – it was previously exclusive to PlayStation only. Some of the exclusive cosmetics are also brought.
Interesting, in a special story for Suicide Squad Today, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier has mentioned that a “Director’s Cut” of Hogwarts Legacy is currently in the works, so we’ll be keeping an eye out for more details on that.
Here are the full patch notes for the Hogwarts Legacy Summer Update on Xbox Series X and S. The Xbox One patch notes vary slightly in terms of the specific bug fixes that have been implemented for last-gen versions.
