You can approach Hogwarts Legacy as you would any other typical AAA RPG game. So you won’t have to worry about coordinating your control scheme down to the last button for optimal configuration as if your life depended on it. While challenging, it is a more forgiving experience. It won’t punish you with immediate death or severe injury for every mistake made. The more important question that you, as a player, will have to answer is, which feels better to you? Hogwarts Legacy is no Dark Souls. Given that the player can only equip a finite number of spells in their loadout at any given time, and the number of other required of inputs is fairly minimal, you don’t have to worry about the same controller button being tied to a dozen or more actions, as is sometimes the case with other more demanding RPGs. The game’s controls seemed perfectly well-fitted for either setup. It’s simply a matter of customizing the game to your personal preferences.įor instance, in my playthrough of Hogwarts Legacy, I have alternated at times between using a mouse and keyboard and an Xbox wireless controller.


Setting aside any PC vs console debate, there are no obvious pros or cons involved. The good news right off the bat is that there really is no obvious difference. Which is better for Hogwarts Legacy?įor those of you deciding whether to play Hogwarts Legacy using either a keyboard or a controller, you’ve likely had a few questions, such as how will it impact the combat, flight, or other gameplay mechanics integral to the broader Wizarding World experience.
