Discover how to install and use mods in Hogwarts Legacy and take your gameplay experience to the next level.
The latest Hogwarts Legacy update brings with it a variety of useful changes, including official mod support for PC. Rolled out on January 30, this recent version of the game has official support for more than 100 mods. Developers have also unveiled a special Creation Kit that allows modders to make mods for the game easily. With that in mind, let’s take a step-by-step look at how you can install and use mods in Hogwarts Legacy.
How To Install Mods in Hogwarts Legacy
You need to follow the steps mentioned below to download and activate mods for Hogwarts Legacy:
- Step 1: From the main menu of the game, choose the Play Mods option.
- Step 2: Use the Discovery or Browse tabs to find the mods you are looking for. You can also use a filter that lets you select mod categories based on your interest. Moreover, there are options to sort the mods based on the most popular or highly rated.
- Step 3: Select the mod you want to install to open its own page. Click on install in this page.
- Step 4: Once a mod is installed, you can view it in the Library tab.
- Step 5: Go to the Enable Mods tab and choose the mods you would like to activate. Then choose the save game file you want the mods to be applied to. This will essentially create a modded copy of the save file. You can still access the unmodded saves if you want.
Every time you start up Hogwarts Legacy, you must choose the modded save to load up from within the ‘Enable Mods’ menu. Loading the game from the normal main menu will lead to the unmodded save game being loaded.
Things To Know Before Using Official Mods in Hogwarts Legacy
Before you can jump into the official mods for the game, ensure the following things:
- You have updated Hogwarts Legacy to the latest version. Without this version installed, you will be unable to see the ‘Play Mods’ options in the main menu of the game.
- You will also need to link your Steam or Epic Games account (wherever you have bought Hogwarts Legacy from) with the WB Games account. Without this link, your game will not be able to start the official mod manager.
How To Link WB Games With Your Steam or Epic Games Account
Follow the method below to link the accounts and access mods from within Hogwarts Legacy:
- Step 1: Go to the official WB Games website and create an account or sign in if you already have one.
- Step 2: Under Account Settings, go to the Connections tab and locate Steam or Epic Games.
Keep in mind that one PC can be connected to a single WB Games account.
Besides the official mods, you can choose to download and install Hogwarts Legacy mods from Nexus Mods. In that case, you will need third-party software to install and activate the mods. Furthermore, after the recent game update, many of these unofficial mods may not work properly, leading to errors or crashes.
