Hogwarts Legacy on Switch 2 is mainly notable for its upgrade path, since the game can be moved from a Switch 1 copy to the Switch 2 version for $10 and then played without keeping the original cartridge in place. That makes borrowing a Switch 1 cart from a library or friend a workable route, and the original can even be deleted after upgrading. The main drawback is pricing, since $29.99 for this card is seen as poor value next to cheaper Switch 1 digital sales and the upgrade fee. A useful option if you are focused on the Switch 2 version.
The upgrade path can work without keeping the Switch 1 cartridge in place after upgrading from a digital Switch 1 version.
Borrowing a Switch 1 cartridge from a library can enable the $10 upgrade and then continued Switch 2 play without the cartridge.
Deleting the original Switch 1 version after upgrading to the Switch 2 version can still allow the game to play normally.
The game can be a practical option for players who moved from a larger game library to a smaller city with fewer games available.
The $29.99 price may not feel like a deal because Switch 1 digital has been seen on sale for $10 with a $10 upgrade option.
The Switch 2 upgrade may require the Switch 1 cartridge to be present for play, which can make borrowing approaches unreliable.
The cartridge-free upgrade behavior for Hogwarts can be unclear because it is described as a special-case loophole rather than a standard Switch 2 upgrade rule.
The franchise discussion can be sensitive because some buyers may want to separate the game from JK Rowling's opinions.
