Hogwarts Legacy es one of the most complete video games in the Harry Potter universe that have been created to date and in our complete guide to the game we are telling you all the aspects that define the work of Avalanche Studios, from its basic concepts to all the collectibles, going through the resolution of the most complex puzzles that can be found between the walls of the castle and all the locations that are present in the title.
However, despite the tremendous success achieved by the work, Hogwarts Legacy has not been without controversySince, as it is a video game based on the Harry Potter universe, many eyes are directed towards the author of the books, J.K. Rowlingwho in recent years has shown reprehensible attitudes and transphobic comments with which the entire community has positioned itself against it. Now, many wonder if Rowling is involved in the development of Hogwarts Legacy and if you will receive money from purchases of this game.
How much money JK Rowling takes for Hogwarts Legacy
The exact number is unknown, since these types of details do not usually come to light. However, even though JK Rowling has not been involved in the development of Hogwarts Legacy directly, on its website it does appear that part of the team that works with the author of the books has been immersed in the projectso Rowling will receive an amount for this performancebeyond the transfer of trademark rights, obviously.
Many players have decided not to buy the game due to this fact, something for which Avalanche Studios has strived to avoid, creating a truly inclusive video game where all players have a place, trying to completely separate himself from the comments and attitudes of the author of this magical world. So that, the answer to the big question is yes, to some extent JK Rowling will receive part of the income from Hogwarts Legacy as creator of the universe on which the game is based and collaborator, at least through her work team, in the development of the proposal. Even if it is a smaller percentage, she will profit from it.
