Hogwarts Legacy Transmog guide: How to change appearance but keep stats

In order to transmogrify a piece of clothing in Hogwarts Legacy, simply hover over the piece of clothing you wish to change, and press square on PlayStation or X on Xbox.

You’ll then be given a list of the collections of clothing that you’ve either purchased, found, or received as rewards for missions.

There’s no way to set a favorite item of clothing, so if you then change the actual gear piece on the gear menu, you’ll have to transmogrify it again.

Hogwarts Legacy Transmog guide: Where to get other appearance options

You can find other appearances and other clothing items in a few different places. The most common place you’ll find them are the dozens of chests that can be found all over the world.

Once you’ve found an item that has a unique style you’ve yet to collect, it will be added to your collection, meaning you can then discard the item, but keep its unique look, should you want to switch back to it.

Another place you can buy new clothing items, including several that can’t be found anywhere else in the game is Gladrags Wizardwear. These items will change as you progress through the game.

Sadly there’s no easy way to tell if you’ve got the style already from the shop menu, so if you’re a completionist then you’ll have to note down which items you’re missing the next time you visit the shop.

The final place you’ll receive clothing items is from challenges. These challenges can be found in the menu, and require you to complete a certain number of specific feats in order to unlock items of clothing.
