An upcoming video game dedicated to the Harry Potter book series will reportedly shrug off the controversy surrounding its author and allow players to make transgender characters.
Customization of a character’s physique and gender in Hogwarts Legacy will include the ability to give them a “masculine or feminine voice no matter what their body looks like,” according to a Bloomberg report. Players may then select a “witch” or “wizard” option to determine dorm and house placement at Hogwarts and how other characters refer to them.
