How big is the world of Hogwarts Legacy?

Hogwarts Legacy was given an in-depth look at PlayStation's Hogwarts Legacy State of Play that streamed on March 17, 2022. It was revealed that players would be able to explore a plethora of places within the wizarding world, including places not shown in the movies. The showcase highlighted Hogsmeade and the surrounding countryside Hamlets, but other locations will likely be explorable outside of Hogwarts' walls.

The showcase gave a ton of information about the game, including modes of travel. Players will be able to fly on broomsticks to explore the world and will likely have the capacity to explore at their own pace. Scenes of the showcase also revealed the iconic Hogwarts Express, with players seated on a train traveling to an undisclosed location. This may be how players get around the world until they master their broomstick abilities.
