For those who already own Hogwarts Legacy, there’s a special gift which is a Bonus Legacy Pack that will be available when they download Quidditch Champions and connect to their WB Games account.

There’s also a physical edition for consoles like the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, which will be released on November 8, 2024. The Nintendo Switch version will be arriving a bit later, during the holiday season, making it the perfect addition to gamers’ holiday gaming lineup. 

PlayStation Plus members will be especially pleased since the game will be available at no extra charge as a Monthly Game from September 3 to September 30.

With a price tag of $29.99 for the Digital Standard Edition and $39.99 for the Deluxe Edition, fans will have the option to choose the edition that they prefer.

The developers’ dedication to listening to and incorporating fan feedback and delivering an authentic Quidditch experience is evident in the features and events they’ve packed into the game. 

However, there has been quite some criticism from fans due to the decision to have three Bot/AI players in each 6v6 matchup on both teams, meaning only three players on each time will be controlled by other players.
