Hogwarts Legacy was quite the showcase on PC and current-gen consoles and managed a reasonable enough transition to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but Nintendo Switch...? That's the game's biggest porting challenge yet. What you get is recognisably Hogwarts Legacy, but a massive array of compromises, cutbacks and design changes are required to get the game running - and even then, the results are far from ideal.
