The Autodesk Vision Series event officially kicked off today, featuring talks from studios like Playground Games (Forza Horizon 5,) Warner Bros Games Avalanche (Hogwarts Legacy,) and many more! While not the biggest gaming event out there, it seems that Hogwarts Legacy made a bit of a bigger appearance than many had thought, as a new cinematic video was shown off along with some images, and other tidbits of info.
First up is the new cinematic video that aired during the event’s broadcast.

Next is a batch of new images from the presentation itself. There’s not a whole lot to them, though one does confirm the name of the professor who was featured in the Hogwarts Legacy State of Play trailer.
