The video game industry holds its “hit” of the beginning of the year. Launched a week ago on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, the title “Hogwarts Legacy: The Legacy of Hogwarts” has more than successfully entered the game. “It’s monstrous. We can already estimate that sales are between 5 and 10 million copies worldwide, underlines Cédric Lagarrigue, senior advisor for the investment bank Alantra.

A level of sales that already makes it a notable success in the sector. On Steam, the reference platform for online PC game sales, the title has also reached a peak of nearly 880,000 players connected simultaneously. This is the second highest score in history for a single-player game, behind blockbuster Cyberpunk 2077, at 1.054 million.
