If that's not a true metamorphosis spell... From January 30, 2025 on PC, Hogwarts Legacy welcomes a major free update introducing official support for mods. Developed by Warner Bros. Games and Avalanche Software, this new feature will enable players to customize their gaming experience with dedicated tools, available via Steam and theEpic Games Store. This development is aimed exclusively at PC users, with consoles currently excluded.
Announced via an official trailer, this update marks an important step for players wishing to enrich the game's universe. "We've made it easy for everyone," says Chandler Wood, community manager atAvalanche Software. According to him, these simplified tools will enable creators to"awaken their inner developer". Among the additions available from launch are alternatives to broomsticks, such as a dragon or a vacuum cleaner, as well as in-house content such as an infinite dungeon challenge and a quest around magical creatures.
With this update, Hogwarts Legacy, which is celebrating its second anniversary, continues to build community loyalty. The title, which has already sold over 30 million copies as of November 2024, is set to expand its horizons even further thanks to the creativity of players and mod creators. An initiative that could foreshadow similar developments for the studio's other games. To your keyboards!
