Hogwarts Legacy is an immersive, open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books. This Hogwarts Legacy Wiki Guide will help you find out when you learn certain spells, how to get through the major story missions, and how to track down elusive collectibles like Revelio Pages and Demiguise Statues. Unlike many other guides that collect info from around the web, we verified all 241 Field Guide Page Locations and even provide shortcuts for their locations on our maps to help you track them all down the easy way. Where possible, we also include full walkthrough videos.
