To get a broom in Hogwarts Legacy, you must first complete the Flying Class with Madam Kogawa. This is unlocked after finishing the main story mission Jackdaw’s Rest.
Once you have completed the class, you can travel to Hogsmeade and purchase a broom from Mr. Weekes in the Spintwitches Sporting Needs shop for 600 gold.
Once you’ve bought a broom, you’ll be able to fly around the open world. But can you play Quidditch in Hogwarts Legacy?
Follow these steps to get a broom in Hogwarts Legacy:
- Progress the Main Story until you complete the Jackdaw’s Rest quest
- This will unlock the Flying Class Quest
- Head outside Hogwarts to the Flying Class Lawn to start the quest
- Complete the broom-flying tasks that Madam Kogawa gives you
- These tasks are both fairly simple, so they shouldn’t give you too much trouble!
- Fly Around Hogwarts with Everett Clopton
- This is the final part of the Flying Class
- Once the quest is over, you can head to Hogsmeade and buy a broom from Mr Weekes in the Spintwitches Sporting Needs
- This is the shop opposite Ollivander’s Wand Shop, where you customize your wand!
- Each broom costs 600 gold, so you will need at least that much if you want to purchase a broom
- If you don’t have enough gold, there is an Eyeball chest you can open just behind the shop which has 500 gold in it
While you’re in Hogsmeade, there’s plenty more to do. You can get a haircut and even change your character’s appearance there!
