Players will often refer to their Hogwarts map and use the Revelio spell to keep track of their surroundings, especially when searching for Demiguise Moons or Daedalian Keys. These seven locations are important to note, as players will need to attend lessons and complete assignments to learn new spells to aid them on their adventures. Some classrooms feature handy resources like Herbology and Potion stations for crafting.

Hogsmeade

Hogsmeade is the beloved all-wizarding village in the Harry Potter franchise. It features shops selling all the necessities players will need on their journey, from all the latest gear at GladRags to J. Pippin's Potions.

Other recognizable locations from the Harry Potter movies include Honeydukes, the sweet-smelling wizarding confectionary shop, and The Three Broomsticks pub that sells the infamous Butterbeer.

There are three Floo Flames to fast travel to in Hogsmeade, allowing players to get around easier as Hogsmeade is a no-fly zone, so bad luck if you're on a broom! Hogsmeade has plenty of Field Guide Pages, Demiguise Statues and Collection Chests to unlock, so keep your eyes peeled for secrets!

Many doors in Hogsmeade are also locked and require different levels of the Alohomora charm to open. The Alohomora spell is taught by Mr Moon in the stealth quest The Man Behind The Moons.
