Choose Different Choices From First Playthrough
In this game, choices appear during quest play, and the story unfolds differently depending on the choice made. Since it is not possible to cover all choices with just one playthrough, try choosing different choices from the first playthrough during subsequent playthroughs.
Possibility of Multiple Endings
It seems that Hogwarts Legacy also has a chance of multiple endings depending on your choices. If you choose different choices or actions from your previous playthrough, there is a possibility of seeing new endings.
Play with a Changed Appearance for the Protagonist
By replaying the game, you can play with a protagonist who has a different appearance from the first playthrough. You can change hairstyles, scars, and clothing at the Hogsmeade shop, but you can only choose gender, facial structure, and voice type at the beginning. Enjoy the game with a fresh new look for the protagonist.
