An updated art book listing on Amazon may have dropped a hint about Hogwarts Legacy release date. In a Reddit thread, Amazon UK customers who pre-ordered The Art and Making of Hogwarts Legacy: Exploring the Unwritten Wizarding World reported that the placeholder release date for the book was changed from December 31, 2022 to December 6, 2022, the latter of which is a Tuesday and that’s typically when video games release. Additionally, users received emails from Amazon UK confirming that the book’s release date has been revised to December 6th.
Hogwarts Legacy release date might be set a little before or in early December
Avalanche Software and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment have reassured fans on multiple occasions that rumors of Hogwarts Legacy’s delay aren’t true and it’s still on track to release this year. Why is an art book’s release date relevant? As pointed out by Reddit user Aromatic-Adagio2121, Warner Bros.’ other game Gotham Knights is also getting a similar art book on its release date of October 25th, 2022 (also a Tuesday) so there’s a possibility that Hogwarts Legacy art book will coincide with its launch.
Folks over at Video Games Chronicle claim that they’ve seen the emails Amazon UK is sending out with the revised release date for the book. If Warner Bros.’ recent video game release pattern is anything to go by, Hogwarts Legacy’s release date of December 6, 2022 sounds plausible.
This is all speculation, of course, but it does seem to make sense. And if recent leaks are any indication, those who pre-order Hogwarts Legacy will be entitled to 72-hour early access.
