For those worried about how the PS4 port of Hogwarts Legacy would look do not have to be concerned anymore.
Hogwarts Legacy Looks Pretty Good On PS4

Hogwarts Legacy is one of the biggest games of 2023. When the game initially came out, reviewers were singing praises about this particular title. The game hit that nostalgic feeling that many Harry Potter fans were missing and on top of that, gave fans exactly what they wanted in a Harry Potter game.

It has done so well that it has sold 15 million copies around the world. This was before Hogwarts Legacy was ported to previous-gen consoles and the Nintendo Switch. The sales should increase because Hogwarts Legacy is now available for the PlayStation 4. For those who were concerned about the quality of the port, do not worry; it looks like Hogwarts Legacy is a good PS4 port.

Typically, the ports of games for older generations do not go well. That is because most of the efforts in making a game are to make them as good as they possibly can be on the latest systems and PC. That means developers have to work backward a bit to make their games work on a previous generation. It looks like Avalanche Software knocked it out of the park.

In a comparison video by EIAnalistaDeBits on YouTube, we can see that the PS4 version of Hogwarts Legacy runs very well. Although there are a few hits here and there, it looks like there are no major stuttering issues, and the quality of the graphics is still high. They are even better if users decide to play on the PS4 Pro.

How Is The Quality Of Hogwarts Legacy On PS4?

We would have to say the quality of the PS4 port of Hogwarts Legacy is good. On the PS4, Hogwarts Legacy runs at 30 FPS, and the quality is 900p. On PS4 Pro, you will see the game at 1080p and 30 FPS. If you manage to unlock the FPS of the games, though, they run at 50 FPS. But it seems that the game runs smoothly on both consoles.

The main drawback that people will run into is the detail quality. For example, the shadows and lighting will definitely take a hit in the game. On top of that, the textures can end up looking a little bit flat as well. But the overall quality of the game is still high for a port to the previous generation. PS4 owners will be very happy with the port of Hogwarts Legacy.
