Hogwarts legacy releases this week, February 10, on PC, PS5, and Xbox consoles, with Deluxe Edition owners getting early access tomorrow, February 7. To coincide with the game’s launch, WB Games and Avalanche Software have announced a series of Twitch drops that will hand out freebies to those who participate. The freebies include in-game cosmetics. It’s unclear if this is the only way to claim the cosmetics, but they are as follows: Silver-Eyed Dragon Spectacles, Carmine Bol Lightning Scarf, Urchin Hat, and Lilac Assemble.
What do you have to do to claim these cosmetic items? Well, first you need a Twitch account, be logged in and make sure Twitch drops are enabled. Then you have to watch a streamer playing the game for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes you should get one of four items. To get all four items you need to be inside Hogwarts legacy streaming for two hours. Once you’ve earned the reward, claim it in your Twitch inventory. From here, go to the connection page for the WB Games account site and connect your WB Games profile to your Twitch profile. If you don’t have the first one, you need to make one. And that’s it.

Hogwarts legacy will be released on February 10 via PC, PS5, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X. Meanwhile, on April 4, it will also be available via Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One. Reviews for the game started rolling in today, and right now it currently has an impressive score on Metacritic based on these early reviews.
“While it doesn’t do everything perfectly, Hogwarts legacy stimulates the imagination with a rich world to explore and gameplay that empowers and thrills the player,” reads an excerpt from our review-in-progress for the game. Harry Potter movies had the arduous task of taking words on a page and creating a visual language for them. Hogwarts legacy had the even more difficult task of taking that visual language and making it interactive, eventually expanding it all into something that’s fun to play and immerse yourself in. , Hogwarts legacy is already one of the best games of 2023.”
