How to Brew Potions in Hogwarts Legacy

Firstly, you need to obtain the correct recipes for these potions before you can even start to brew them. Additionally, you must also gather or purchase the ingredients. Your Brewing Station is in the Room of Requirement – your home base! This handy area is where you can upgrade your character and spells.

Hogwarts also has potion classes available within the school, allowing you to become more knowledgeable in the world of potion brewing. The Brewing Station features a quick-time event, where you have to press the on-screen buttons as they pop up on the screen.

By brewing Maxima, Invisibility, Thunderbrew, Focus, and Felix Felicis, you can unlock a trophy!
