For now, it's completely unknown if Albus Dumbledore will actually appear in **Hogwarts Legacy ** .

Harry Potter fans don't know the exact year, or even decade, in which Hogwarts Legacy takes place . Dumbledore was born in 1881, which means he would be quite young in the video game. If Hogwarts Legacy takes place in the 1890s, he could even be a student at Hogwarts, since this would've been the decade in which he attended the school.

The biggest stories of the week include the return of Lucasfilm Games, more Cyberpunk 2077 drama, new Nintendo Switch game announcements, the Hitman 3 EGS controversy, the Indiana Jones game announcement, and several high-profile del


So considering the level of scrutiny anything having to do with the Harry Potter series is under recently, it comes as somewhat of a surprise to learn that Hogwarts Legacy 's lead designer, Troy Leavitt, has a history of anti-feminist and pro-GamerGate views that he's elaborated on in a series of videos posted on his YouTube channel, as Kotaku has recently reported. His videos range from praising cultural appropriation, promoting putting the National Guard in schools or shooting active school shooters (who are almost always teenagers), to downplaying the extensive sexual assault allegations levied against former Disney/Pixar CCO John Lasseter because Lasseter was personally nice to Leavitt.
