Additional update features

Along with Photo Mode, we have a few other small features and additions included in this update.

Reset talent points

Players can now reset their talent points from the Field Guide menu to try out different playstyles. You can reset all of your allocated talent points or undo specific talent points individually. Each talent point you reset will cost 200 gold.

New cosmetics

We’ve brought some new decorations to Hogwarts Legacy to give it a fresh look for your next playthrough. Our artists took inspiration from one of the wizarding world’s most famous Azkaban escapees to create the Azkaban Coat and the Prisoner of Azkaban Costume.

Last year we showed off our Hogwarts Legacy Easter Egg video. Many players asked us how to get them, and we finally recovered these circular ice glasses from the cupboard under the stairs so you can wear them yourself. You will also receive the Onyx Hippogriff mount as well as the new Lavender Borealis broom.

Additionally, we’ve made some bug fixes and optimizations for players.

Thank you for your support of Hogwarts Legacy! The Hogwarts Legacy Summer 2024 update is now available to download on PS5 and PS4, free for all players! Share your favorite Photo Mode captures with us using the hashtag #CaptureTheUnwritten and we’ll see you at Hogwarts.
