- Last updated on
An article on "name change" in "Hogwarts Legacy." Included is a method of changing the name to Japanese or Katakana and what can be changed after creation.
Timing for Name Change
Cannot Be Changed After Character Creation is Completed
Once the name is set, it cannot be changed. The game will progress with the name decided during Character Creation, so it is recommended to set the desired name from the beginning.
Using Japanese in Your Name
Currently Not Available in the PS5 Version
The ability to use Japanese in the name of a character created in the PS5 version is currently impossible. There is a possibility of support being added later through updates, but it is not confirmed. It is recommended to choose a name in the alphabet.
Using Notepad and Ctrl+V in the Steam Version
If you are playing the Steam version, you can copy the Japanese name you want to use in advance using applications like Notepad. Then, in the name input screen of Character Creation, you can use the shortcut key "Ctrl+V" to enter a Japanese name.
Character Creation Elements That Can Be Changed Later
Hairstyle and Hair Color
The hairstyle and hair color that can be set in Character Creation can be changed later at the store "Tress Emporium" in Hogsmeade. It is recommended to try changing them when you want a change of mood while playing the game.
Skin Texture and Scars
The skin texture and scars that can be set in Character Creation can also be changed later at the store "Tress Emporium" in Hogsmeade. By adding more scars and adjusting them according to the progress of the game, you can immerse yourself more in role-playing.
Eye Color and Eyebrow Color
The eye color and eyebrow color that can be set in Character Creation can also be changed later at the store "Tress Emporium" in Hogsmeade. Changing the eye color when you learn dark magic and other skills can help you better immerse yourself in the world of Hogwarts Legacy.
