Can You Ride Dragons in Hogwarts Legacy?
In the highly anticipated open-world Harry Potter game, Hogwarts Legacy, fans are eager to know if they can ride dragons. The answer is a resounding yes, but with some limitations. In this article, we’ll dive into the world of dragon riding and explore the possibilities.
The DragonOgryff Mod
While there is no native dragon riding feature in Hogwarts Legacy, a special game mod called DragonOgryff has become a major attraction for fans. This mod allows players to fly on a Hungarian Horntail dragon, giving them the thrilling experience of soaring above Hogwarts School and its surrounding environment. Note: This mod is not officially supported by the game developers, and players should use it at their own risk.
Confirmed Mounts
In the base game, there are five mounts to unlock, including:
- Brooms
- Hippogriff
- Onyx Hippogriff
- Thestral
- Graphorn
Each mount has its unique abilities and characteristics, and players can choose the one that suits their playstyle. Unfortunately, dragons are not included in the list of confirmed mounts.
Breeding and Capturing Graphorns
Graphorns are a type of magical creature that can be bred and captured in the game. After getting your first Graphorn, you’ll find a lair in the same area where one Graphorn spawns at a time. You’ll have to defeat it in the same way as you did with the first one, but then you can "rescue" it. This process can be repeated to obtain multiple Graphorns.
Shiny Graphorns
Shiny Graphorns are a rare variant of the Graphorn species. They have a grey/white color compared to their light brown counterparts. Shiny Graphorns are technically unlimited and can be bred after getting your first one. Note: Shiny Graphorns are not rideable, but they can be kept as pets.
Riding Unicorns
Unicorns are another type of magical creature that can be bred and captured in the game. While they are not rideable, they can be kept as pets. Unfortunately, there is no option to ride unicorns in Hogwarts Legacy.
Prison and Jail
In the game, there is a prison that can be accessed, but only for players who were sorted into the house Hufflepuff. The prison is only accessible through a house-specific quest, which requires players to defeat a Graphorn in battle and then lead it to a certain area to open the path forward. Note: The prison is not a rideable location.
Conclusion
In conclusion, while there is no native dragon riding feature in Hogwarts Legacy, the DragonOgryff mod offers an alternative way to experience dragon riding. Additionally, players can breed and capture Graphorns, which can be used as mounts. Unfortunately, unicorns are not rideable, and there is no option to ride dragons in the base game.
