The game has recaptured the adoration of many former childhood fans of the Wizarding World very quickly. Hogwarts Legacy, a video game created by Avalanche Software, who based it off the original Harry Potter books written by J.K. Rowling, takes place a century before the well-known events depicted in the Harry Potter saga, occurring even before the birth of Dumbledore! As a student at Hogwarts in this game, players will discover all there is to know about the many useful potions, plants, spells, and fantastic beasts that inhabit this fantasy realm of witches and wizards.

To find this chest in Hogwarts Legacy, there are a couple of things that you will need to do first. Without further ado, we have listed all of these steps in order below. Get searching!

  • Firstly, you will need to accept a main quest with Sebastian Sallow, which is the only way you can get into the Restricted Section of the Hogwarts library for the first time.
  • After that, your main worry is the ghosts who are always close, so be sure that you have a way to sneak past them!
  • Next, head downstairs to the lower floors of the library’s section.
  • Look for a storage room, and enter that as soon as you find it.
  • Inside the room, check the far corner (down the stairs) of the room for your prize!
  • There’s also a secret chest hidden within the fireplace in the library. Unfortunately in order to access this chest, you need to distinguish the flames. You’ll need Glacius spell to put out the flame in order to access.
