Another player in Hogwarts Legacy recently encountered a bizarre bug while playing the game. Their in-game characters were seen moving over land but performing swimming motions instead of the usual walking or running actions. As players continue to explore the vast world of Hogwarts Legacy, it's not uncommon for them to encounter interesting bugs and issues during their adventures in the Wizarding World.
Since Hogwarts Legacy's launch in February 2023, it has garnered a substantial following in the gaming community. With the developers now focusing on retaining a strong player base, the recent release of the game for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and the pending launch for the Nintendo Switch later this year, it's safe to assume that the development team is actively addressing gameplay issues to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all players.
On Reddit, JuangaBricks posted a brief video clip showcasing their Hogwarts Legacy playable character seemingly swimming on land instead of water due to a game bug. The character can be seen performing swimming motions while moving around a small area, which fans may recognize as the Boathouse located on the school's grounds. This area is likely situated on top of the Great Lake surrounding Hogwarts Castle, which may have triggered the movement bug seen in JuangaBricks' video.
However, what's interesting about this particular Hogwarts Legacy bug is that it appears to resolve itself when the player keeps their character on the ground for a period of time. Fortunately, there have been no reports of game crashes caused by this issue, which is a relief. One Reddit user even responded humorously to the situation by sharing an image that referenced the magical nature of the world, suggesting that there's no need to explain what's happening. Nevertheless, this bug serves as a reminder that the Hogwarts Legacy team still has some work to do in addressing issues within the action-RPG.
With the release of Hogwarts Legacy on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, players have been eagerly anticipating the upcoming Nintendo Switch version. However, the developers still have some time to address any remaining bugs or issues in the game before its release. It is hoped that these issues will be resolved so that new players can fully enjoy the action-packed RPG without encountering any game-breaking problems. The Nintendo Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy is set to release on November 14th, and fans are eagerly awaiting its arrival.
