Can You Speak Parseltongue in Hogwarts Legacy? Explained

The videogame Hogwarts Legacy, the newest installment in the Harry Potter series, is jam-packed with fantastic stuff for all Wizarding World lovers. The fact that so many elements from the series’ immensely famous source material books and movies have been included into the game will please fans of it a lot. Hogwarts Legacy has already demonstrated how much effort went into it after years of preparation and a few hiccups. At Hogwarts, students may study magic, perform spells, fulfill quests, and travel their favorite magical castle.

While there is a menagerie of fantastic beasts in the world of Harry Potter, one of the most prominent amongst them are snakes. Being the symbol of Slytherin, as well as the secondary antagonist in the Chamber of Secrets book/movie, they play a big role in the main series. Some select few, very powerful wizards can speak to these snakes by speaking their language, Parseltongue. Thus, players of Hogwarts Legacy want to know if they will be able to speak Parseltongue in the game, and we’ll cover that in this guide.

Can You Commune With Snakes in Hogwarts Legacy?

Unfortunately for those hoping to learn Parseltongue, it does not appear that this is a feature of the game. The language itself is extremely rare and powerful, and is usually only known by pureblooded witches and wizards with close ties to Salazar Slytherin, founder of House Slytherin. Therefore, it does not make much sense for the protagonist in this game to have the ability. However, this feature could exist in later updates to the game, and players could learn it as they progress.
