In Hogwarts Legacyas we have also seen from the presentation trailers, it is possible ride different magical animals, both in vote and from the ground. During the course of the campaign, witches and wizards therefore unlock some mounts. Let’s see what they are and how to get them.

The Hippogriff
The main mission the High Fortress it is essential to unlock the first mount, ie the Hippogriffwhich allows players to ride Alaforte And sail the skies on and around Hogwarts. Those who have pre-ordered the deluxe edition they can also choose to ride Caligoa Onyx Hippogriff (think of it as an additional Hippogriff skin) obtainable exclusively as a bonus for the advance purchase of the game. The mission plans to reach Alaforte, previously encountered in game during the first Animal lesson, by climbing the battlements of a fortress.
Those who are fans of the Harry Potter world will surely remember the right way to approach a Hippogriff: don’t look him in the eye and take a deep bow, waiting for the animal to bow in turn. In Hogwarts Legacy she was Perfectly recreated encounter modewhich is used with Alaforte.
The Thestrals
Soaring the skies is possible too riding the Thestrals, the winged and skeletal creatures said to accompany Death.

Marching on the ground
The Graphorn
Last but not least is the Graphorncurrently the only magical creature that can be ridden on land (new ones may be introduced with additional DLC).
