Myers “sea,” J. Scott Rakozy, and Peter Murray, as well as a 54-piece orchestra led by Nathan Hofheins.
The original gameplay footage wanders over the Hogwarts Castle and the huge surrounding locations, including Hogsmeade, and is projected behind the orchestra and interspliced throughout the music video to highlight the enormity of the universe. The symphonic music produces a wonderful melody evocative of the Wizarding World while invoking an earlier descent from ancient tales.

All of the additional music from Hogwarts Legacy will be accessible on the Hogwarts Legacy website on launch day (Original Video Game Soundtrack).
