Designed to be a perfect replica of the world of Harry Potter, a rather important detail in this world of wizardry strikes fans in Hogwarts Legacy. This is the one from the Quidditch test, which we do not see in the game. The developers have given their explanation on this subject, but what is it really? This is what we are going to detail to know the real reason.

The developer version
According to Avalanche Software, the fact of not having included the Quidditch competition in the game has contextual reasons. Indeed, according to their explanations, in the main story of the game, the character of the player is a pupil who enters the fifth year, and for this very specific year, the director announces upstream that Quidditch will be suspended to avoid risk of another accident.
We can indeed see in the game details that suggest that Quidditch is present contextually like the stadium near the school (it is also possible to wear appropriate outfits), but that the practice is prohibited.
What could be the real reason
The elements already visible in the game mentioned above, however, suggest that this is a concern at the level of the realization. It was initially planned to include Quidditch matches, but the idea was abandoned a year later due to the resources it requires and the important technical details. We can indeed see that the directors want to design the game as faithfully as possible to the descriptions of Harry's universe. For this, the achievement of Quidditch matches in the game should not be taken lightly and should be a kind of mini-game but on a larger scale.
Possible hypotheses
Given that Hogwarts Legacy is a very promising game on the face of it, and it's covered by Warner Bros., there's no doubt that this is a long-term project. As a result, the theory assumes that it would be possible for Quidditch matches to be integrated into a later version of the game. Moreover, one can consider the fact of being able to ride a broom above the stadium as a taste of what it might look like as broomstick moves are part of the discipline of Quidditch competition.
