Hogwarts Legacy launched in February of this year on the major platforms, letting players choose one of the iconic houses and go on a magical journey in this massive open-world RPG. The developers have promised that a Switch version was coming, but after a delay, some fans were worried it might not happen.
However, the Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy has made its way to the public and will launch on November 14, physically and digitally, for $60. Of course, the game does not look as good as its PlayStation/Xbox/PC counterparts, but going portable might be a great way to explore Hogwarts.
For those who plan on purchasing the digital version of Hogwarts Legacy on Switch and would like to know the exact time it comes out, that information has not been released by Nintendo or the developers at Avalanche Software. However, we might be able to figure out the expected release time for Hogwarts Legacy on Switch by looking at the Nintendo support page that details when new digital games are added to the eShop.
When Does Hogwarts Legacy Come Out on Switch?
For titles that are sold physically and digitally, they should unlock at around 9 PM PT the night before the game's release. However, if a game is third-party --like Hogwarts Legacy-- there's a chance it might not be available to play until 12 PM PT the day of release. So, Switch owners can expect Hogwarts Legacy to go live as early as 9 PM PT on the 13th and as late as noon on the 14th.
As for those in other popular time zones across the world, here are the expected release times:
- November 13 at 9 PM PT (Los Angeles)
- November 14 at 12 AM ET (New York)
- November 14 at 5 AM GMT (London)
- November 14 at 6 AM CET (Berlin)
- November 14 at 1 PM CST (Beijing)
- November 14 at 2 PM JST (Tokyo)
- November 14 at 4 PM AEDT (Melbourne)
Hogwarts Legacy on Switch is planned to have a major day-one patch , so players should ensure their storage space is freed up before casting spells around Hogwarts.
