Hogwarts Legacy gets classy update you can download free now

A new mod for Hogwarts Legacy has completely reworked the way classes work in the game, making magical school-life that little bit more immersive.

As we endure the long wait for news on Hogwarts Legacy 2, those still playing the game have a variety of PC mods to spice up the gameplay.

Check out Hogwarts Legacy below.

There are mods that expand the game with new mechanics and spells, mods that enable online multiplayer, and ones that make minor changes to the world and improve upon its immersion, like the one we’re talking about today.

Immersive Classes does exactly what it says on the tin, it makes Hogwarts actually feel like a school rather than a hub world that just so happens to have students within it.

Created by icouldifiwantedto who got the idea from another mod, it makes the various NPCs found in the game stick to an actual schedule of classes, rather than just aimlessly wander around.

It’s said teachers and students will attend eight classes per day, and if a teacher can’t be there for whatever reason, one of the prefects will fill in for them while they’re gone.

During free periods, they’ll hang around common rooms, and sometimes rock up to lessons early if they’ve got nothing better to do.

It’s a simple mod and doesn’t change anything about the player’s gameplay, but it does make Hogwarts feel like an actual school for once, which is something quite a few players and critics had an issue with when the game first came out.

You can download the mod right now from NexusMods, and if you combine it with some others that let you damage NPCs and skip classes, you can quickly turn Hogwarts Legacy into a magical version of Bully.

Hopefully, Hogwarts Legacy 2 takes a deeper dive into the actual school part of the game, perhaps as an optional way to level up and become stronger with your powers.
