Hogwarts Legacyis the first truly open-worldHarry Pottergame set at Hogwarts in a time before the main series of books and films, specifically 100years beforeThe Sorcerers Stone, in the late 1800s.
After booting upHogwarts Legacyfor the first time, players will be quickly introduced to a character named Fig, a professor at Hogwarts. He will take the main character to Gringotts bank to open up Vault 12 with a mysterious key. At first, players can only move at a slightly normal pace, but there is away to sprint inHogwarts Legacy, and here’s a guide to explain how to do it.

How to Run in Hogwarts Legacy
To get around a little bit faster around Hogwarts,Hogwarts Legacyplayers can sprint by pressing L3, which is the left control stick on any gaming controller. By clicking into the stick, players can run –and there doesn’t seem to be any limit on how long players can run, as long as they aren’t in the middle of an important conversation or event that prevents sprinting.
This will work for both PlayStation and Xbox gamers, as both controllers have a proper left stick that’s clickable. The same goes for those playingHogwarts Legacyon the Nintendo Switchonce that version is available later this year.
