Hogwarts Legacy chapters list: All main missions that progress the story
Every Hogwarts Legacy quest that will push you towards the ending.
The big new Harry Potter game Hogwarts Legacy has more than 40 quests in its main story, so it's only natural to wonder at any given point how far you've progressed — and how much is still to come before the ending.
In an interesting take on the open world gaming formula, Hogwarts Legacy often locks story progress behind specific spells and skills, stopping you through rushing into the next main mission before you're fully up-to-date with your studies.
You'll find at certain points that the Quests tab is showing you a hefty to-do list of lessons, assignments and other pieces of homework, all of which are apparently required reading if you want to progress through the story to the next big cut-scene.
When you make it to the next main mission, the busy work tends to make sense in hindsight, as there is almost always a puzzle or other such struggle that can only be solved with the skills you just learned.
Keep on reading, then, and we'll run through the Hogwarts Legacy chapter list, keeping it in the same order — and broken into the same sections — as the game itself does. If you want to take a zoomed-out look at how far you've come, read on, but do be aware that some of the mission names include light spoilers.
