Hogwarts Legacy will feature Ray Tracing Shadows, Reflections & Ambient Occlusion

Warner Bros has confirmed that Hogwarts Legacy will feature Ray Tracing Shadows, Reflections and Ambient Occlusion. As such, we expect this game to look great on PC, although it's a shame that there is no support for ray-traced global illumination.

@WBGamesSupport hello I saw you confirmed that the game has raytracing support, can you elaborate which specific raytracing effects we will be able to toggle on? Thanks!

Hogwarts Legacy will be using Unreal Engine 4, and will support DLSS 3 at launch. This is great for all owners of the RTX series as they will be able to overcome the additional CPU overhead of these RT effects.


As we've already reported, the game will be also using Denuvo, and you can find here its final PC requirements.


Warner Bros. will release Hogwarts Legacy on February 10th, 2023.
