Summary

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're going to be discussing Hogwarts Legacy and DLC - which stands for 'downloadable content'. We're going to be tackling the important questions like:

Is it happening?
When is it happening?
What type of DLC can we expect?

The first thing that I want to address is a quote from Alan Tew - Lead Game Designer at Warner Bros Interactive- which has been circulating around the internet. In this quote, Alan discusses the future of the game and his thoughts on the current state of DLC.

The quote was made at the IGN Fan Fest:

"We've been really heads down bringing Hogwarts Legacy to life, so at the moment there are no current plans for DLC."

Unfortunately the internet ran with this a little too quickly, as his statement invariably sparked the creation of thousands of videos and articles in which the respective authors so proudly titled their new piece of content 'No DLC for Hogwarts Legacy EVER'.

..But, there's much more to it than that.

0:06.0	Hey everyone, welcome to another instalment of Harry Potter Theory.
0:14.0	Today we're going to be discussing Hogwarts Legacy and DLC, which stands for downloadable content. In other words, expansions, add-ons, upgrades,
0:24.5	whatever you want to call it. We're going to be tackling the important questions like,
0:28.8	is it happening, when is it happening, what type of DLC can we expect? The first thing that I
0:34.7	want to address is a quote from Alan 2, lead game designer at Warner Bros Interactive, which has been circulating around the internet.
0:43.3	In this quote, Alan discusses the future of the game and his thought on the current state of DLC.
0:49.3	The quote was made at the IGN fan fest.
0:52.3	We've been really heads down bringing Hogwarts Legacy to life, so
0:55.9	at the moment there are no current plans for DLC. Unfortunately, the internet ran with this
1:01.4	a little too quickly, as his statement invariably sparked the creation of thousands of videos
1:06.4	and articles in which the respective authors so proudly titled their new piece of content,
1:11.9	no DLC for Hogwarts Legacy ever.
1:14.8	This is simply not the case.
1:16.7	Duh Millie said that there are no plans for DLC at the moment, and this is completely
1:21.3	fair if we consider the infancy of the game.
1:24.6	This absolutely does not mean that we will never receive DLC. That just wouldn't
1:29.5	make any sense whatsoever. Around 10 to 20 million copies of the game have already been sold
1:34.5	this year alone, and the game is still only just rolling out. At this point, only the diehards
1:40.4	have bought and beaten it. Casual fans are just starting to get their hands on it,
1:45.0	and the rest of the market, who I'm sure will catch on, will eventually be enticed by the game,
1:50.0	regardless of whether or not they're a huge Harry Potter fan.
