To fully explain the sprawling areas located in Hogwarts Legacy, we first have to explain the multiple maps in the game. Throughout your time in the land, you’ll have three different maps to view. You have the overworld map, as well as the more detailed maps of Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. These two separate maps are to help explore and travel through the very intricate layouts of Hogwarts, and help find the right shops you need in Hogsmeade. Unfortunately, any notable places that aren’t part of the expansive Hogwarts countryside won’t be available for players to explore. Places such as King’s Cross, Diagon Alley, and The Ministry of Magic just to name a few. However, the places that are available to explore will be sure to take your breath away.
