Hogwarts Legacy fans surprised with free DLC download

Hogwarts Legacy players can now grab Twitch-exclusive DLC rewards, without actually using Twitch.

Despite being snubbed at The Game Awards, something players and even some streamers are disappointed about, the Harry Potter spin-off Hogwarts Legacy has done remarkably well since its release earlier this year.

Check out the Hogwarts Legacy below.

The game is now available on all platforms, and recently launched on the Nintendo Switch in a surprisingly stable state. It’s officially the best-selling new game of the year.

Now, the game’s developer Avalanche Software and publisher Warner Bros. Games have decided to reward loyal players with free DLC, which was previously only available via Twitch. These were exclusive rewards that required you to link your Twitch account with your Warner Bros account to watch certain limited-time streams, unlocking some stylish customisation options for your created character.

Unfortunately, some people missed out on the freebies, whether it be because they didn’t have the game yet or simply missed the streams. Luckily, Warner Bros. Games has officially made the rewards free to grab and access on all platforms.

All the player has to do is load up the game and download the latest patch, and then you should find them added to your inventory. The list of cosmetic items includes: Charms Professor Spectacles, Charms Professor Gloves, Charms Professor Outfit, Charms Professor Scarf, Charms Professor Tasselled Kufi, Charms Professor Robe, Silver Dragon-Eyed Spectacles, Urchin Hat, Carmine Lightning Bolt Scarf, Lilac Ensemble, and Merlin's Cloak.

Players were pleasantly surprised, and while it didn’t break the internet by any means, it was a nice addition especially so many months after the last big content update.

Now, players are campaigning for more exclusive content to make its way into all Hogwarts Legacy versions, like the PS5 exclusive side quest that turns the game into a horror beyond comprehension.

Hogwarts Legacy is available on Xbox, PlayStation, PC and Nintendo platforms.
