Hogwarts Legacy voices detailed
The crotchety Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is portrayed by actor Simon Pegg in the film Hogwarts Legacy. His character’s name is Phineas Nigellus Black. Headmaster Black comes from a long history of Slytherins, and he is reviled by the students, who he also has a tremendous hatred for. He is the current head of Slytherin House. Due to the fact that he is grossly unqualified for his position, his objective is to complete the smallest amount of work possible and to keep his distance from the student body. Instead, he prefers to concentrate on his standing in the wizarding world and the surgically enhanced appearance of his beard.
Sebastian Croft and Amelia Gething play the two voice options for the game’s playable avatar, which can be highly customized to allow players to choose the witch or wizard they want to be. In their roles as fifth-year students entering Hogwarts for the first time, Croft and Gething play the two voice options for the game’s playable avatar.
Professor Matilda Weasley, a pivotal character in the video game, is brought to life by Lesley Nicol, who provides her voice. The Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts, she is a Gryffindor who helps the player catch up with the other students by providing them with the Wizard’s Field Guide and showing them the Room of Requirement. Professor Onai, portrayed by Kandace Caine, was a gifted Seer who used to teach Divination at Uagadou, the largest wizarding school in the world. However, her faith in her sight was shaken when she was unable to predict the death of her husband, which caused her to question the accuracy of her ability. She makes the difficult decision to put those traumatic experiences in the past and instead accepts an offer from Professor Weasley to teach Divination at Hogwarts. Professor Satyavati Shah, who teaches astronomy, is portrayed by Sohm Kapila, who also provides her voice. Professor Shah was brought up in the Muggle world, and she has a tendency to speak down to her pupils by using meandering and pompous aphorisms. She is dedicated to the sciences, though.
Everett Clopton is a Ravenclaw and a half-blood underachieving rule-breaker and joker. Luke Youngblood, who portrayed Lee Jordan in the film series, returns to supply the voice of Everett Clopton. This will be exciting news for longstanding fans of the franchise. Another Ravenclaw student, Mahendra Pehlwaan, is portrayed by Asif Ali. Mahendra Pehlwaan is a Muggle-born wizard who is a dedicated follower of the rules. Due to his strict commitment to the regulations, even the instructors at Ravenclaw have become a little bit frustrated with him.
The voices of both Nearly Headless Nick and the Sorting Hat are provided by Jason Anthony. Nearly Headless Nick, also known as Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington, is the ghost of the Gryffindor house. He is affable and engaging, despite having an air of superiority about him. If the Gryffindor player is willing to do him one tiny favor that involves a piece of bad roast beef, he may be the key to helping them locate answers that are vital to solving a huge mystery. However, this will only work if they are willing to do him this favor. The famous Sorting Hat is a sentient, magical hat, and it analyzes information from the student’s history in conjunction with input from the player to decide which Hogwarts house will be the best match for the student.
Following is a video in which voice actor Simon Pegg discusses his position as the headmaster in Hogwarts Legacy. This brings to a conclusion the news about the actors that provided their voices for the game.
On July 25, 2023, Hogwarts Legacy will make its debut on the Nintendo Switch.
