2023 is expected to be a fruitful year for gamers across the globe. Some massive AAA titles have been released and many more are in queue to hit our gaming monitors. One title among the list that appealed to the mass was Hogwarts Legacy. The wizarding wonder can be considered the biggest hit of the year at the moment, but now the game is facing some staggering issues.

The magical wonder from Avalanche Softwares is facing player decline, making the game vulnerable to a massive downfall.

The growth is stagnant at Hogwarts Legacy

There were a lot of criticisms associated with Hogwarts Legacy even before its release. There were massive boycott movements against the game following as well. Regardless of all this heat, Hogwarts Legacy emerged to be one of the biggest games of 2023. The numbers that the game put up regarding player count were more than impressive.

But it seems like they are not able to maintain the numbers as the game now has reached its second month. According to reports, the game is witnessing a massive drop in players.

Hogwarts Legacy reportedly has a much lesser number of players compared to Elden Ring, which is more than a year old. This sure is a piece of worrying news for the game and the developers.

Are DLCs the answer to this decline in consumers?

Hogwarts Legacy offers the players a single-player mode with an interesting storyline, but it seems that after the narrative and exploration are over, the game is not appealing to the larger audience. So, what is the answer to this dilemma? From the looks of it, releasing a DLC might work wonders for the game.

As the content gets finished, that is, post-completion of the games, players need some elements to stick with the title. To do that, the developers need to release a DLC which offers the player base something more to work with. Unfortunately at the moment, the Hogwarts Legacy team is busy issuing patches to address the current stents in the game.

One key factor that is helping the game in maintaining some of its player base is the many mods that are available in the market. But these are just temporary solutions, and they are not even official.

Thus, new DLCs are expected to come in the future. Ideas like the popularly demanded multiplayer mode not only will maintain the player base but can even widen the game’s reach. But at the moment the developers are gearing up for its release on platforms like PlayStation 4.

The fans surely would be expecting more additions to the game in the form of in-game content through its future DLCs.
