Even though many Harry Potter players hoped to enjoy the new game with friends, the only option is to enjoy the exciting PvE content created by the developers.
Could multiplayer be added to Hogwarts Legacy?
However, considering Hogwarts Legacy is set to be one of the most popular games of 2023, there's always a small chance that multiplayer of some form is added in the future.
In August 2022, the developers released an Instagram post in which they promised to make exciting announcements on September 1. It led to fans speculating about multiplayer being added to the game in the form of co-op.
