Is the Avada Kedavra Unforgivable Curse in Hogwarts Legacy?

With a spell as powerful as this, you may initially think it would be excluded or significantly nerfed to be similar strength as the rest of the game’s magic. You may also believe that it only knocks out enemies temporarily rather than killing them as another way to weaken the spell. Don’t worry, though; this isn’t the case, and there is a definitive answer for whether Avada Kedavra, in its true and most powerful form, is in the game.

The short answer? Yes, you can cast the Avada Kedavra Unforgivable Curse in Hogwarts Legacy, and it is just as deadly as you’d expect. The only catch is you’ll have to wait until near the end of the game before you can unlock it.

Avada Kedavra is the only spell in the entirety of Hogwarts Legacy that is guaranteed to one-shot any opponent you face. This not only includes regular enemies but trolls and Infamous Foes. You can even inflict curses and upgrade the spell to cause a chain reaction, eliminating multiple at once. The main downside of this spell is its long cooldown timer to offset just how powerful it is.

In other words, while you can instantly kill enemies with Avada Kedavra, you won’t be able to spam it. Be sure to use it wisely!

Hogwarts Legacy will be available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch through the official website.
