Amelia Gething, the Hogwarts Legacy voice actor for the female protagonist, has shared several ways that your teenage wizard or witch can die in the game. On her official Instagram, she reveals that your character can perish by “getting fried by a dragon or falling off a broom.” Yikes, that’s a pretty awful way to go.
Gething’s voice acting role took three years to complete
Fans reacting to the reveal on Reddit wonder how the player can get knocked off a broom, considering that Quidditch will not be a playable mini-game in Hogwarts Legacy. Perhaps it will be part of a quick-time event or an enemy attempting to push you off your broom with a nasty spell.
Gething also shared in her Instagram post that she has been working on the game “over the last three years,” which is quite a long time for any voice actor to be a part of a game’s production. This suggests that the amount of voice dialogued in Hogwarts Legacy is very high.
The length of her role may not be too surprising, though, given that Hogwarts Legacy was originally delayed from 2021 to 2022 and then again in August 2022 to the current release date of February 10, 2023 for PS5 (not including the 3-day early access for those who pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition). The PS4 release date is two months later on April 4, 2023.
While Gething will voice the female protagonist for the game (as Voice 2), Sebastian Croft will play the voice for the male protagonist. Actor Simon Pegg will voice the grouchy Headmaster Phineas Nigellus Black, one of the ancestors of Sirius Black.
