All fans of Harry Potter will surely know the Whomping Willow. This is the tree that was planted due to Lupine’s arrival at Hogwarts. Below it has a passage to the Shrieking Shack.
Hogwarts Legacy does not bear the hallmarks of a typical production made under license. Here, the creators actually pay attention to the world of Harry Potter. Whomping Willow is a good example here. In Hogwarts Legacy, it won’t be there.
But that’s not the most important thing, players asked why and got an answer that shows that the developers actually know what they are doing. Let us remind you that this willow was planted in a specific year and it is an officially confirmed fact.
Why won’t the Willow be in the game?
One of the players asked the developers on Twitter if there would be a Whomping Willow in the game. He replied that unfortunately not, because it was planted in 1971, but the game takes place 80 years before this fact.
This is a small thing that may seem insignificant, but players write that it makes them very optimistic about the entire production.
The game itself comes out at the end of this year. Until the premiere, we will have to satisfy ourselves with such interesting facts.
