Warner Bros. Games and Avalanche Software today introduced some of the well-known voice actors from the English version of the video game Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacythe upcoming open-world action-adventure role-playing game set in the wizarding world of the late 1800s.

​
​Developed by Avalanche Software and published by Warner Bros. Games under the Portkey Games label, Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy lets players experience life as a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry like never before, living through a never-before-seen story that will take them on a dangerous journey to discover a hidden truth of the wizarding world.
​

​In Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy, the actor Simon Pegg plays Phineas Nigellus Black, the cantankerous headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Coming from a long line of Slytherins, Headmaster Black is hated by the students, for whom he also has great contempt. Heavily unsuited to his position, his goal is to exert as little effort as possible and avoid exposure to the student body, preferring instead to focus on his status in the wizarding world and his meticulously trimmed beard.

Sebastian Croft and Amelia Gething will lend their voices to the game’s playable avatars, which can be customized by players, allowing them to choose the witch or wizard they want to embody.

Lesley Nicol picks up a key character from the game, Professor Matilda Weasley. From Gryffindor, she is also the Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts who helps the player catch up with other students by giving them the Wizard’s Guide and showing them the Room of Requirement.

Kandace Caine plays two roles: Professor Onai and his daughter Natsai, a Gryffindor student. Professor Onai was once a professor of divination at Uagadou, the largest school of sorcery in the world, and a gifted clairvoyant whose faith in her vision was shaken by the unexpected loss of her husband. Deciding to leave these painful memories behind, she accepts an invitation from Professor Weasley to teach divination at Hogwarts.

Satyavati Shah, the astronomy professor, is voiced by Sohm Kapila. Raised in the Muggle world, Professor Shah is devoted to science and tends to disparage her students with meandering and pretentious aphorisms.

Fans of the longtime franchise will be happy to recognize Luke Youngbloodwho played Lee Jordan in the film series, returns to voice Everett Clopton, a half-blood Ravenclaw rule breaker and prankster with poor results.

Asif Ali voices another Ravenclaw student, Mahendra Pehlwaan, a muggle by birth who follows the rules to the letter, so much so that it even ended up annoying the teachers!

Jason Anthony doubles as both Nearly Headless Nick and the Sorting Hat. Nearly Headless Nick, the ghost of Gryffindor house, also known as Sir Nicholas of Mimsy-Porpington, is friendly and entertaining, if a little pompous. And finally, the iconic Sorting Hat, a magical, sentient hat that uses knowledge of the student’s past as well as player feedback to determine which Hogwarts house is best for them.
