Hogwarts Legacy could be making a major leap in Hogwarts Legacy 2 after a job listing points toward a very different experience inside the Wizarding World.

Hogwarts Legacy launched back in 2023 and became an instant hit. It delivered a rather familiar world, complete with spells, companions, exploration, and all fans’ favorite locations. It dominated sales charts and became one of the biggest releases of the year as players spent months combing through every secret in the castle.

That success immediately fueled demand for a sequel. Warner Bros confirmed that Hogwarts Legacy would be getting a second game, and fans have been waiting for information about what comes next since then.

There is no release date yet, and the studio has not formally shown gameplay, but reports have suggested that development has been underway for some time. With expectations rising, players have been asking for bigger systems, deeper RPG mechanics, and a way to share the experience with others, and it looks like it’s finally here.

Online multiplayer could come to Hogwarts Legacy 2

A new job listing from Warner Bros. Games has been revealed, offering applicants the chance to “Join the team behind the blockbuster open world, action RPG Hogwarts Legacy as we create what’s next!”

The description goes further and spells out exactly what the studio is building. It reads, “Avalanche, a division of WB Games Inc., is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our team of talented industry veterans working on a new online multiplayer RPG. This person will work closely with project engineering, art, and design leadership to architect and implement the backend infrastructure for an online multiplayer RPG.”

The listing could connect Hogwarts Legacy to the team’s next project and then describes an online multiplayer RPG, suggesting that Hogwarts Legacy 2 will introduce an online system, likely allowing players the chance to explore the castle with friends, or even beyond.
