I was curious as to what was used to make this game.


What programming language or game engine was used to create Hogwarts Legacies?


Question from user Shaun Roselt at stackexchange.


Answer:

Unreal Engine 4, according to the Hogwarts Legacy Wikipedia Page, PrimaGames, Videogamer, and many other online sources. This was also confirmed by the developers of the game.


So, what coding language does Unreal Engine 4 use? Unreal Engine 4 uses C++, with a few modules written in Blueprint scripting. That said, you don’t need to be a C++ expert to develop games using UE4. The engine has been designed so that you can create games without having to write any code at all! However, if you want to get the most out of the engine and really customize your game, then C++ will give you the power to do that. So the developers of Hogwarts Legacy most definitely used C++ as well to customize the game.
