Being a student at Hogwarts is a magical experience, but fan-made mods make it even better. These best Hogwarts Legacy mods improve the gameplay or just make the game funnier (I personally love Shrek broom).

Best Mods for Hogwarts Legacy

Arachnophobia

Anarachnophobia modeis one of the most requested features in Hogwarts Legacy due to theAcromantula. The base game does not have this feature, but Hogwarts fan norskpl has made it themselves. This mod replaces the Acromantula with harmless-looking cubes, thus removing their spidery nature.

Thomasbroom

We all knew this was coming. No PC game is complete until it has a mod addsThomas the Tank Engine, and creator Zurrye has modded this legendary figure into Hogwarts Legacy. This mod replaces your Broom with Thomas and will certainly make your flight time interesting.

Paler and Darker Skins for Player Character

Hogwarts Legacy offers a robust character creator, but some fans want more options. This skin tone mod adds moreskin palettes, which allows you to create your ideal witch or wizard student.

Arithmancy Door Numbers

Hogwarts Legacy is full of puzzles, but few are as confusing as the first time you encounter anArithmancy Door. Thispuzzleinvolves the most dreaded form of magic—math. Fortunately, MissingMinus has created a mod to add numbers to the door, making it easier than ever to solve the equation.

NPC Schedule Enhanced (Better AI)

If you’re looking for a more realistic experience, Khione95 has modded abetter schedulefor the NPCs. For example, students will attend classes while the Professors walk around the castle at night. If you’re going for a late-night stroll, don’t get caught!

Facial Hair

Sure, you are playing a student in Hogwarts Legacy, but some kids hit puberty early and start growing facial hair in school. Sirgalahad172 feels the same way and has created afacial hair modthat lets your character have a glorious mustache or thick beard.

Skip Alohomora

TheAlohomoramini-game has been the bane of all fans' existence. It’s a spell that should automatically unlock anything, so why do we have to play the same mini-game over and over again? Luckily for us, icouldifiwantedto modded a skip that automatically unlocks all locks at your Level.

Shrek Broom

The green ogre invades all media sources at some point, as norskPL has modded Shrek into Hogwarts Legacy—not as a character, but as a ridable broom. TheShrek Broomturns your witch or wizard’s broom into an ogre and lets you fly through the sky.

DragonOgryff

Hogwarts students usually won’t get to ride dragons at any point in their lives (unless you are the Golden Trio). However, Zurrye decided to grace us with another fun mod toride dragonsin Hogwarts Legacy.

Hogwarts Legacy VR

While not complete,Flat2VR’sVR mod for Hogwarts Legacy is one of the most ambitious and coolest mods. This will allow players to explore Hogwarts like never before. It is a work in progress, but it certainly looks promising.
