Earlier this week, we reported that a companions system was introduced to Hogwarts Legacy with a mod. Installing this mod and summoning companions with this mod, however, wasn't exactly straightforward, but another developer came to the rescue to create another mod that makes this process much, much easier.
The AnyTimeCompanion mod, which can be downloaded from Nexus Mods, introduces an in-game menu that can be used to spawn companions at any time during the game. The list of available companions includes several classmates, as well as headmaster Phineas Black and professors Matilda Weasley and Aesop Sharp. Not all available companions, however, can use spells, so this mod is not as advanced as the already mentioned Companion Mod.
Since its release last month, several mods have been developed for Hogwarts Legacy, introducing gameplay tweaks and visual improvements. Earlier this week, a new mod introduced improved ray-traced reflections that make the game's world look incredible.
Hogwarts Legacy is now out on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S worldwide. The game will release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on April 4th and on Nintendo Switch later this year, on July 25th. You can learn more about the game by checking out Chris' review.
Hogwarts Legacy is, for better or worse, an entertaining and engaging game. By far the best digital version of the wizarding world, it offers a vast swathe of things to do. Even the more mundane elements (bandit camps!) are improved by a robust combat system that genuinely makes you feel like you're a part of the Harry Potter universe.
