74 Easter Eggs & Details You Missed in Hogwarts Legacy

[@ameliahirsch21]

i loved the detail in the opening cutscene of the main character being able to see the thestrals. such a nice touch

[@josefresnillo51]

I was like "Maybe he can disapparate in time" but then the thestrals showed up and I gasped so hard

[@paulz5301]

Finding those details while gaming honestly touched my heart and made me feel like a child. What an experience. I’m looking forward for new games set in the wizarding world. The potential is unending!

[@bronzeanon985]

Its clear that the people involved in creating this game had some deep passion for the project and it shows, such a sweet experience. Thank you wholeheartedly!

[@KitaShintai]

The game is what every Harry Potter fan dreamed of truly a masterpiece

[@alpha_omega9222]

They put so much passion into this its simply amazing love this game and the community

[@ryder_hd]

I think masterpiece is maybe a bit strong

[@kennylacombe]

Would be if there weren’t so many bugs and loading errors. AND missing things on the map! It’s a really good game, I do love it. It’s that I can’t wrap my head around the fact that there’s so many bugs STILL.

[@joshlamb9410]

@@kennylacombe For me it’s all of the removed mechanics and features that were originally supposed to be in the game, especially sneaking around hogwarts at night time.

[@kennylacombe]

@@joshlamb9410 yeah the original showcase of the game was more exciting. Like you said, the sneaking around in the castle at night. And hitting the students. A morality mode would’ve been nice. But last night, I was playing and wound up falling through the floor again. This time I went to the 2 little lands blacked out on the top right of the map. I flew under out of bounds u til I got there. It was all finished. I collected some plants and leeches. No chests or enemies. I wonder if that’s how big the map was originally planned.

[@sh1310]

"You'll fight a couple of acromantulas in the game", bit of an understatement...

[@icarus1065]

You can tell this game is a labor of love by fans for fans (and even non fans!) It's been years yet I still discover something new about this world. You guys even made the battle system so fun and challenging! Initially I was content exploring through the castle and the open world because the design is gorgeous. But I eventually look forward to taking out the bad guys

[@AtlasV-]

This is the first time I’ve seen the arachnophobia mode, and I have to say that while it’s a neat idea, it looks WAY scarier than the original spiders lol

[@MartyKay]

Exactly! That body is just... weirdly disturbing 😅

[@NCT127xx]

I was always playing on normal mode until I came across a quest with a giant spider so I activated the arachnophobia mode, but I was more scared than before😂

[@Celisar1]

No, honestly not. The Phobia mode looks rather cute.

[@ActiveSufi]

Scary to us because we dont have arachnophobia. To those who do, its the legs and pincers that get them.

[@veracrow842]

Yes it does.

[@Chip-nh6rg]

This game is begging for some DLC!

[@Doomergedon]

Oh my goodness Sebastian DLC 😵😵😵

[@maykolbenjumea3285]

Please with quidditch

[@Tera677]

We’re getting a separate quidditch game and we are expecting a Hogwarts Legacy 2 due to job listings so we most will not get any dlc’s

[@ponchicharron]

Guess that ain’t happening

[@KatieKatt18]

I would LOVE an out of bed mode where we get in trouble for being out of bed at night like in the books

[@PhoeFireaga]

I noticed most of these! It really moved me emotionally when coming across these details! Very well done.

[@stezzaplays3979]

facts I felt so connected and to see referrences to the books and movies was superb I think maybe one or two of these I missed

[@mrelcordero980]

I noticed the memorial to Coltrane (Hagrid) the first time I played. Was a really nice thing devs didn’t need to do❤️

[@theelusiveman9706]

He was also incredible in 007 Goldeneye, plus The World Is Not Enough.

[@MsMeyara]

The easter egg I love the most was the shurtcut to Hogsmeade, you know the entrance to Honeydukes behind the One-Eyed Witch, just like the books. Though, I preffered the route to be even longer and smalle. Another easter egg I loved was that you actually had the painting in front of the kitchen near the Hufflepuff Common Room. I love that you actually needed to tickle it! My bf who didn't read the books, didn't know it was there and I showed him. He was flabbergasted, so even for those who didn't read the books... it made it so much more magical!

[@KintolzRED77]

You mean shortcut to Hogsmead haha?

[@MsMeyara]

@@KintolzRED77 If you correct me, please do it right lol. No I know you meah well, thanks

[@KintolzRED77]

@@MsMeyara I did do it right. You edited your comment ti change it lmao. And this time you misspelled small.

[@RetroRaconteur]

Great job on this video, guys! I was blown away on so many of these when I originally found them. The love, care, and attention to detail the team put into the game is just incredible. Also, it looks like Chandler had a lot of fun recording for this one 😆😆😆

[@SHARDK2]

The amount of effort and attention to detail that went into making this game as accurate to the books and movies as possible is astounding and it really shows.

[@Stuffguy.]

I like the armor guys in some hallways who gets so annoyed from the other one humming that they just absolutely destroy them

[@maddinpictures3102]

Hapened to me in the background of a Cutscene while Headmaster Black was talking to Professor Weasley, it was hilarious

[@_luciasanchez]

I am amazed and touched by the dedication and attention to detail the devs put into the game. Sometimes when playing I focus on finishing the quests, but this makes me want to stop and explore more. I admit I also laughed that using Flippendo on a cow says spilled milk and gives you a trophy.

[@TheOddball28]

Even though I found many of these on my own I have to say a lot of those I genuinely wasn’t aware of, such as 3:12 wow had no idea about that! Hats off to the devs who had to not only deliver this amazing game but also delivered interesting bonuses for the players, such as these Easter eggs!

[@digantakumardas515]

Was hugely moved when came across these references while playing the game, it was like living the dream we always wanted. Brilliant.

[@grunefeder2768]

My favourite one will always be "follow the butterflies." I laughed so much when I saw the quest name.

[@5ellerzcommunitygaming471]

This game is so damn detailed I love it!! I found so many references from the film which has me always coming back to play this game more and more! You can tell the devs really put effort into this game by how much detail and lore behind each Easter egg! I love this game and hope they will continue this level of devotion to such a wonderful game. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾 for a game of the year award 🥇

[@MixNMatchName]

Appreciate all the Ron references! The movies definitely didn't do him justice

[@doufmech4323]

Nope, they destroyed his character in favor of hermione

[@idrow1]

I want to live in the universe they've created, this game is simply amazing. The details are just incredible.

[@TheMrCGW]

Got to say this... Everyone that was involved in this game... You are all absolutely brilliant, one of my favourite things was seeing a troll dancing on the river bed, just the small things that made me smile. Thank you

[@Reimateri]

We need BIG DLC with romance and much more misions.

[@polishrocker93]

They said there won’t be any DLC, so quit like baiting.

[@deanteas]

They just said they wanted something, leave ‘‘em be.

[@arryharry]

New Game+, mission replays, manual weather and seasonal changes, more location missions for new gear, extended levels (to 50, at least!) to enable getting all talent points, and more secrets please - like the ability to sneak into the other houses! The life of the game is then properly extended, as this game doesn't need a second edition, the world map is good enough and big enough to accommodate all of the above and keep HL gamers going for ages.

[@Jenneth]

The one thing they probably can’t admit they sneaked into the game was the How To Train Your Dragon theme song with the Graphorn haha

[@optimus9390Drawing]

the spider without the legs n roller blades somehow more terrifying then they normally look

[@arcticlusher]

Love the game!! Hope it gets a expansion or sequel!!

[@Codraroll]

I think an expansion is likely. It sold very well, and was positively received, so there's money to be made. Additionally, I think there were enough beasts, spells, and potential enemies left unused to serve as content for a DLC. Expecto Patronum is one of the most iconic spells of the franchise, and would translate well to the game, potentially in conjunction with dementors. Not to mention the whole location of Diagon Alley, which would be a nice DLC area full of new quests and details.

[@arcticlusher]

@@Codraroll well most definitely lol

[@rhaykoza]

I'm still playing my long time dream game and I'll stay on as long as I can and I'm sooo happy about everything I'm discovering !! Most of all, I'm happy that it was made by real Harry Potter fans, you can tell

[@CTLR99]

I thought i would have discovered all of these already before watching the video, as always with you guys my mind has been blown and ive realised i have not even scratched the surface yet. Great video :)

[@Onyx174]

I love this game so much 🥰 It couldn't be more perfect. Thank you for including all the details and for making this happen. ❤

[@Yothlan]

Really I tip my hat off to the entire dev team ! Seeing all those details and attention to the look and feel of the game really shows the love and hours you all put into the game ! As a software engineer I know there must have been a lot of compromises made to get this masterpiece on time and under pressure, so really bravo for keeping the magic going there.

[@Skyflame_]

Wow, some were new to me. Thanks for making such an amazing game! Love when you make both the book and the movie scene come true ❤

[@kma6978]

When you go through the Room of Requirement for the first time, you can also find one of the Pawns from the chess game that takes place in the 1st book. That was one of my favorite finds!

[@onespellaway]

A lovely run down - noting some that I missed, which was fun to see. The effort that has gone into this game is beyond anything I ever expected. This Potterhead was well and truly impressed (and super obsessed) by this game. A very well done!

[@darkraven4467]

Hogwarts Legacy is such a beautiful masterpiece of a game! I have played through the gave five times and I’m still amazed how beautiful this game is. I do hope there will be dlc for this game.

[@PacificNorthBex]

dude thank you guys so much for making an arachnophobia mode! they are so much less creepy and scary looking and I don't know if I could've done ANY of the quests involving spiders if ya'll didn't make that an option! I even sometimes have a little chuckle at the roller skates. bless ♥

[@samexahr3326]

The deathday party is a personal favourite. It was magical finding that dungeon when exploring the castle. Took me by suprise walking into a party.

[@bluetorcher01]

This game is a love letter to the series. I don’t play a more magic game since ps1 philosophers stone!! I do love it thanks a lot!! ❤

[@gamer-san8923]

You can also see the lake where Harry first casted his stag Patronus when he saved Sirius Black from the Dementors. Numerous stags spawn in that area.

[@rodrigo1205ca]

I'm a huge Harry Potter but honestly at this point I'd get almost any game Chandler is involved with

[@Firehorsemoons]

Why has there not been any expansions? We need more! I’ve completed the game 6 months ago and still waiting.

[@SinfulSaint013]

The fight with the Grim and the White Wolf I think is a reference to Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. And the Infari with them to be the friends they lost in the wars.

[@godsent8498]

Ron's chess move in Philosopher's Stone 😂 Great vid! This game is beyond captivating!

[@LeeJ2512]

I really hope they do a video covering all the Twitter videos they've done, explaining how they used book descriptions for locations like the cave first years come in on the boats etc.

[@codedniche3263]

[@yenzireael8764]

I love all of those details so so much! they just show how much knowledge and love went into creating this game!!! Also that portrait of Wendelin the Weird is my phone background - it's just so fabulous! And omg I knew that the Magical Creatures Ride Castle looked familiar and I wrecked my brain every time I went!!! That is so so so cool

[@CeisaFae]

I knew all of these except for the shop with 3 different doors / interiors

[@jamster126]

So much amazing detail in the game. Credit to the dev team! ,🪄🧙‍♂️🧙‍♀️

[@slowsharkk]

the Indiana Jones skeleton is rly cool I love small little nods like that 10:14

[@tizianrot]

I love all the nods you did in Rons direction, as he was a very underated character in the films.

[@66exe]

While I've never cast flipendo on a cow, I do like to accio them to the Merlin trials circle. When the Merlin trial ends the cow gets stuck on top of the little gazebo

[@michaelklaus]

It seems kinda awkward that people still claim that Ron didn't manage to use Vera Verto properly because he wasn't skilled enough. Sure he was often mentioned to be struggling in Transfiguration but there are two rather obvious catches to this scene. On one hand his wand was broken at the time and on the other the spell is meant to transform animals... not Animagi.

[@michaelklaus]

Some of these are rather gimmicky - of course - but I find the one with the vanishing cabinet rather confusing. Well at least that is when you realize that it was mentioned twice before in the books. Before it showed up in HBP it was mentioned in OotP when Gred and Forge shoved Montague inside of it while he tried to take away points from them. He showed up in a bathroom some time later and was rather confused and mentioned he sometimes heard people at some other place hinting at the connection to Borgin and Burke's. But this malfunction of the cabinet is also explained in the books as it was mentioned before in CoS. Here Nearly Headless Nick talked Peeves into crashing the cabinet down (a flight of stairs? over a railing?) above Flich's office to help Harry out. So the easter egg now suggests that the vanishing cabinet was at some point moved from the room of requirements before the events of Harry Potter.

[@mansiagarwal1779]

Amazing work man!! I have played like 50 times now and play all the time for fun. I missed like 10 Easter eggs u got. Great job😁

I'm glad I noticed many of them! This game is a dream come true to us original book fans, and I'm so immensely grateful of the hard work and attention to detail (and faithfulness to original work) that went into this game. Forever thankful of the experience and the happiness it's brought. Thank you :) Hopefully we'll get to see more Sebastian and Ominis in the future!

[@minibex5258]

Third! just wanna say thanks for making such a great game. i can tell that it was made with such care that only long time hardcore harry potter fans could provide. the little girl in me who was called a nerd for reading the books, playing the old playstation 1 games, watched all the movies many times over (i remember watching the first movie every day after school on vhs) was deeply happy. i felt at home in hogwarts and in the hufflepuff common room and i just want to say thank you. thank you for putting in the time to make such a wonderful game. looking forward to whatever else you put into this world. 💛💛

[@MelanieStainsby]

I don't know if this will work each time, as I've only just noticed it, but the squid will come out of the lake during exploration time (not only when younare on the broom) to see the squid, you come down from the bridge on the left of hogwarts, as if you've just came from Hogsmeade. The boathouse should be on your right, there's a giant tree on the left. Near by there is a small peer/platform area with a boat tied up. Park your broom and face the direction of the tree. The squid then makes an appearance. It's done it twice now from this location, I am playing as a Gryffindor x

[@HrJul]

The phoenix statue you meet in the tale of the three Deathly Hallows I would think is a reference to The Garden of Eden with the Fall of Man. Painted in about 1615 by Peter Paul Rubens and Jan Brueghel the Elder. where you can see a Phoenix in the same position as the statue

I’m so glad the Developers of this game took the time to add so many details and references my favorite one is the death day dance I’ve always been curious what that actually looked like. I would also like to say thank you thank you thank you for adding an arachnophobia mode as I am someone who hates giant hairy spiders and that was always my problem with Skyrim I loved the game itself but the spiders were always terrifying and everywhere and there was no arachnophobia mode so thank you for taking the time to not only add that but also add a reference that just so happens to be of one of my favorite Harry Potter scenes with it.

I will NEVER not be petty about the fact that Slytherin and Hufflepuff each have seven numbered dorm rooms for each year in Hogwarts, while Gryffindor and Ravenclaw had their rooms cut to three or four total. Especially cuz you can tell from the outside that each respective tower has enough floors to have the appropriate number. I just dont get it, was it too hard to copy paste two or three more rooms?? Such great game, so many details, but this was cut. Its such an oversight imo.
