Hogwarts Legacy players find secret chest we're convinced wasn't there before

How – seriously, how – did we miss this Hogwarts Legacy secret before?

You think you know a game inside out, then another fan comes along and opens your eyes to the truth.

Just like Jon Snow, we know nothing.

Magic, not to mention secrets, await in Hogwarts Legacy

As much as we’re trying to convince ourselves that this secret chest wasn’t in this part of Hogwarts Legacy before, other players are assuring us it was.

Redditor WhiplashLiquor is the Harry Potter fan who alerted us to this new find.

“Third playthrough and just now finding this chest? Am I the only one? It's wedged outside the greenhouses,” they posted, alongside a video of their discovery.

“SON OF A BITCH,” one fan replied, which, we have to agree, is the correct reaction.

User DepartureHungry commented, “OMG. I have played through at least 10 times and have never found this.”

“Took me 50+ hours of gameplay to find it haha,” shared Fantastic_Area9325.

It’s part of the fun, is it not, to be reminded of how much we miss despite being so thorough...?

That’s what I keep telling myself, at least.

Now that the modern-day setting for the sequel has been officially teased, we can’t help but speculate what new secrets we’ll discover when we roam Hogwarts’ halls once more.

That’s assuming any Harry Potter fans continue to play now that this news has divided them so much.

If you were fortunate enough to discover this sneaky little chest during your first playthrough, we hope you step on an upturned piece of LEGO.

Only joking. Kind of.

Should you be like us, now questioning what you know and whether it’s even true, at least you now know how to find this secret.

Sure, other missed secrets will haunt you, but at least you can tick another discovery off your list.
