The 10 Best 'Hogwarts Legacy' Mods

One of the first selections on our list of the best Hogwarts Legacy mods is one that offers an improvement in the visual department. Installing this one in the PC version of the game increases the lighting draw distance and improves the lighting pop-in, which goes a long way toward making the interior sections look a bit better.

This mod offers a fix for the game's stuttering issues on PC. Labeled as "Ascendio," players can install this engine enhancement mod to improve the FPS (frames per second) performance. It also minimizes those annoying frame drops and random stutters that trip up the game at times.

This mod changes your trusty wand into a more modern weapon. It won't spit out bullets, though - changing your wand into a pistol only results in a cosmetic change, which means you'll still be able to shoot out your usual array of color-coded spells to down the evil denizens of the Wizarding World.

You can ditch your human form and embody the likeness of a "House Elf" if you'd like. Getting revenge on the human wizards that treat you as nothing more than an indentured servant sounds like sweet, sweet revenge. And it might be worth enjoying that character change via this funny mod.

The fear of spiders may just get in the way of some folks who actually want to take Hogwarts Legacy for a spin. Installing this mod rids the game of those eight-legged terrors and turns them into way less threatening boxes. Plastering so-not-creepy crawling boxes is way funnier than it should be, we swear!

It feels so freeing whenever you hop on your broom and take flight around the perimeter of Hogwarts. This mod gives you the chance to go airborne by sitting atop the world's cuddliest ogre, Shrek. Soaring through the skies while on the back of a creature that's not known for taking flight is pretty hilarious.

This mod also changes the weapon you wield. And this time, your young wizard/witch can go around and cast spells with the aid of the legendary "Sword of Gryffindor." It might be worth taking your attached wand handle off to make this newly equipped blade look a lot better as you rung around with it.

The school of Hogwarts will never be the same when you choose to install this hot and steamy mod. Those moving portraits take on a whole sexy appearance as the hilarious "Ricardo Dance" gif. You won't be able to look away from the gyrating greatness of Ricardo thanks to this wild mod.

Jedi are lovingly referred to as "space wizards," so being able to hold their signature lightsaber in Hogwarts Legacy seems a bit fitting. Once again, you can't go around swinging this thing as a melee weapon since it would turn this game into a limb-hacking simulator. But it sure does look dope as you fling out spells with your blue lightsaber at the ready.

While Hogwarts Legacy takes place a long, long time before Harry Potter embarks on his iconic adventures, you can honor one of the young wizard's best friends by modding his image into the game's moving illustrations. And what makes this painting mod so cool is that it uses the original PlayStation console model of Hagrid that appeared in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Also, rest in peace to the great Robbie Coltrane (the awesome fellow that played Hagrid in the live-action Harry Potter films).
