Hogwarts Legacy absolutely took the gaming world by storm when it launched in 2023, quickly becoming the favorite way to explore the Harry Potter universe for many people. Anyone who missed out when Hogwarts Legacy first arrived on the scene, now’s your chance to see why this game was so successful.
Well, it should be, but you may have some issues actually getting it. Hogwarts Legacy was showing as unavailable for multiple members of the Windows Central team, and wasn’t appearing at all in the Epic Games Store’s “Free Games” section (which currently has lots of other holiday freebies for Epic’s various games).
Those issues were temporary, but we’re still having a variety of errors and lost connections. If you have trouble redeeming Hogwarts Legacy, don’t panic! It’s likely just an influx of traffic, and you have a week to add it to your library. If you already own Hogwarts Legacy on Xbox, though, it recently gained Xbox Play Anywhere support (meaning you can already go play it on PC or handheld).
Everyone else? Hogwarts Legacy is free at EpicGames.com for a limited time.
