The wizarding world experience got even better thanks to the Hogwarts Legacy summer 2024 update. New features such as Photo Mode are now in the game. Alongside these features are new exclusive content. Having that in mind, here's everything players need to know about the summer 2024 update.

Hogwarts Legacy Summer Update Now Live

Before anything else, it's worth noting that the summer 2024 update is free for players who already own Hogwarts Legacy.

Photo Mode

After a little over a year of waiting, players can finally capture beautiful moments in-game with the addition of Photo Mode. Most modern open-world games already have this feature considering how players love to show off their in-game photography skills.

For those curious, Hogwarts Legacy's Photo Mode will have the following features:

  • Tilt
  • Depth of Field
  • Focus Distance
  • Focus Amount
  • Exposure
  • Contrast
  • Saturation
  • Vignette Strength
  • Filter
  • Filter Strength
  • Chromatic Aberration
  • Film Grain
  • Character Pose
  • Hide Character
  • Hide NPCs
  • Frame
  • Logo
  • Logo Position
  • Time of Day
  • Season

Players can now create magical memories and keep them forever. The best part is that all photos are fully customizable according to the player's taste. They no longer have to worry about waiting for a particular season and time of the day to capture specific images. However, keep in mind that all customizations added to the pictures won't translate in-game. All settings will revert once done with Photo Mode.

Reset Talent Points

When playing RPGs, one of the most crucial decisions to make is to level up particular skills. These attributes will result differently depending on how the player wants to build their character.

However, others don't have a specific build in mind and would randomly unlock abilities to test them out. Then some already have a pre-determined build but end up regretting it for various reasons.

With all that in mind, players no longer have to worry about making mistakes when building their characters. The summer 2024 update now allows players to reset their talent points. Depending on what level one decides to reset their points, all they need to do is pay a certain amount of gold coins to rebuild from scratch.

Otherwise, there's an option to manually reset talents one by one. If a player feels like one ability doesn't fit in with the other set of skills, they can simply reset that talent and acquire a different one instead. Keep in mind that resetting points individually will cost 200 gold each. Players are more at risk of spending more than they should if they end up resetting the wrong ability.

Haunted Hogsmeade Shop Quest

The previously PlayStation-exclusive Haunted Hogsmeade Shop Quest is now available across all platforms. Players can embark on this distinctive quest and earn various rewards, including the stylish Shop Keeper’s outfit and ownership of a shop in Hogsmeade.

Free In-Game Items

As Avalanche Software's way of thanking everyone, the formerly exclusive Onyx Hippogriff mount and Felix Felicis Potion Recipe are now accessible to all players, along with the new Azkaban Coat, Azkaban Prisoner’s Outfit, The Glasses That Lived, and Lavender Borealis Broom. Players simply need to log in to Hogwarts Legacy and will then be able to claim these items.

That's all for this guide on the Hogwarys Legacy summer 2024 update. Inactive players now have a reason to hop back on the game and explore the new content that awaits them.
