Owners of the Nintendo Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy may be able to upgrade to the Switch 2 version for $10.
Players have been reporting that if you own the digital version ofHogwarts Legacyon Switch, when you access the eShop listing for the Switch 2 version it will be listed for $10 / €10 instead of the usual $59.99 / €59.99.
Others are reporting that if players buy the DLC for the Switch version, this will unlock the ability to upgrade to the Digital Deluxe Edition for $15 instead of $69.99.
The original Switch version is also currently on sale on the US eShop for $17.99 until May 19, meaning players who don’t already have the Switch version in their library can theoretically get the Switch 2 version for $27.99, less than half price.
This Switch sale isn’t active in all regions – it’s full price in the UK, for example – so players in those regionswill have to use a separate account to access the US eShopand buy the Switch version for $17.99 there.
Warner Broshas yet to officially announce any Switch 2 upgrade offer for the Switch version, so assuming this isn’t an error it’s possible that it’s gone live on the eShop earlier than expected, or that Warner Bros is waiting for the discount on the Switch version to lift on May 19 before making the announcement.
WhileNintendohas already announced that a number of existing Switch games will get Switch 2 Editions which are sold separately or as a paid upgrade, this is one of the first examples of a third-party publisher enabling owners of a Switch game to upgrade it to a Switch 2 version.
