Hogwarts Legacy Is Completely Free Right Now, Here’s How To Get It

You knew a Harry Potter game would do well, but Hogwarts Legacy shows how much the world still loves the franchise. If you’ve somehow still never gotten a chance to wield a wand or crack open a cold butterbeer, then the Epic Games Store is giving you the chance.

Hogwarts Legacy has aptly left an incredible legacy. It has dominated the market since its 2023 release, selling 40 million copies, and carried on the success of the cultural phenomenon of witches and wizards. With Hogwarts Legacy 2 plans already underway, now’s the time to play Hogwarts Legacy for the first time, or maybe make yourself a second-year student?

From May 1 to May 3, the Epic Games Store is offering everyone the chance to pick up the full game of Hogwarts Legacy completely free of charge!

It celebrates 25 years of Harry Potter (has it been that long?!), and you will need an Epic account to play it. Once you’ve made one, download and install Hogwarts Legacy on your system, and you’ll own the entirety of Hogwarts Legacy without paying a single Galleon from Gringotts Bank.

Again, this is a limited-time promotion, so you’ll need to act fast and grab it between now and over the weekend to enjoy a lifetime of muggling hijinx.

If the attractive price tag—or lack thereof—is appealing, then you might still be tempted to spend some money, as the Dark Arts Pack is currenlty 60% off.

It features:

  • Thestral Mount
  • Dark Arts Cosmetic Set
  • Dark Arts Battle Arena

Have you already played Hogwarts Legacy? Was it as good asd you hoped for? With Hogwarfts Legacy 2 on the way, you can let us know what you want to see from the game via the Insider Gaming Discord.
