You can attend classes such as Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Potions, explore Hogwarts and a vast map of the wizarding world, and enjoy a thrilling storyline with plenty of quests. And there are cosmetics that you can use to customize your character. 

But for those who enjoy the ability to customize their gaming experience, there aren’t any official mods yet to do that. However, there are unofficial mods that players can download and use at their own risk to create a more fun or accessible experience.

So, whether you’re looking for a broom mod, a mod to help you with the challenging puzzles, or a meme-worthy mod, these are the ten best unofficial mods for Hogwarts Legacy.

Since its launch, PC players have been experiencing issues like FPS drops and general performance issues. While there are some settings you can change to help resolve these issues, you can also try this unofficial hotfix. 

The mod applies Unreal Engine parameters to Hogwarts Legacy to help address some performance issues. So, this mod might be worth trying if you’re still experiencing some performance issues after changing your settings. 

9. The Elder Wand: A Cosmetic for your wand

Thomas Broom is another meme-worthy mod that you can install as it turns your broom into Thomas the Tank Engine. For this mod, you will need the Moon Trimmer Broom, which costs 600 Galleons from the Spintwitches Sporting Needs store. So, make sure you’ve got this broom if you’d like to install this mod.

The Paler and Darker Skins for Player’s Character is a mod that allows you to make the palest and darkest skins in Hogwarts Legacy either darker or paler, and it’s simple to install. 

While this is an excellent mod for adding more inclusive options, there is an issue where this mod may affect some NPCs. And like the broom mods, the paler or darker options are only available for specific male and female model options, which can be confusing. But the mod offers an instruction sheet that you can use to help you.

3. Mouse Control for Broom: A mod to make flying easier

It’s important to note that this mod doesn’t allow you to look around while you’re flying– it’s just a mod to help make your flying experience less challenging. 

2. DLSS Update: A mod for better performance
