The team at Insight Editions are as excited about the launch of Hogwarts Legacy as we are, and they are celebrating the upcoming launch with a behind-the-scenes look at how the team at Avalanche Studios brought the game to life. Interviews, concept art, renders, sketches, and more will fill the 252 pages of the upcoming hardback book. Let’s get a peek behind the scenes:
- The Art and Making of Hogwarts Legacy takes readers on a journey through the creation of this immersive, open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books and the films. Go beyond the game with exclusive interviews with the development team, stunning concept sketches renders, and illustrations to really explore the creation of this unique take on a beloved world.

- EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS: Hear from the development team on the process of creating this exciting chapter in the history of the wizarding world.
- PEOPLE, PLACES, AND MAGIC: Get an in-depth look at the compelling characters, detailed environments, and amazing magic system that bring Hogwarts Legacy to life.

- THE PERFECT COMPANION TO THE GAME: This beautiful volume is an ideal collectible for gamers and fans of the wizarding world.
We’ll be checking this one out when the game and the book ship side-by-side on February 10th, 2023. Naturally you can pre-order ahead of time, and I would encourage you to do so — this one is likely to sell out pretty quick.
