The Room of Requirement is your fully customizable base of operations in Hogwarts Legacy. This is where you’ll brew potions, grow plants, and care for your magical beasts. However, Hogwarts Legacy throws a lot of this at you at once, so it can be confusing as to what you can do here. Read on to learn everything you can do in your Room of Requirement.
When do you unlock the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts Legacy?
After completing the main story quest “The Room of Requirement,” you’ll unlock the Room of Requirement for you to use and a floo flame in the Secret Rooms section of the Hogwarts map.

You’ll learn the Conjuring spell and Evanesco during the main story quest “The Room of Requirement,” and the Altering spell during the following side quest, “Interior Decorating.”
- Conjuring spell — Allows you to place items in the Room of Requirement
- Altering spell — Change the appearance or orientation of an item when cast in the Room of Requirement. The Altering spell can also be used on anything from the ceiling to the floor.
- Evanesco — Removes items from the Room of Requirement while also returning some moonstone
To use the spells, press “T” (on PC) or right on the D-Pad (on consoles), and equip them to your hotbar. These spells are only usable in the Room of Requirement, so make sure to switch them out when you leave.
How do I expand the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts Legacy?
Not including the Vivarium expansions, the Room of Requirement can expand two times, giving you more space to place stations, furniture, and decorations. You can customize how the room will look by changing the appearance of the ceiling, walls, and floor. To do so, you must complete two quests:
- After the quest “Interior Decorating,” another section of the Room of Requirement will open.
- After completing the main story quest “The Final Repository,” the room from the “Interior Decorating” quest will expand even more.

You may notice that a lot of decorations are not available when you first unlock the Room of Requirement. To get more decorations, you can find them in random chests around the world, or receive them after completing certain quests.
