How to unlock the Thestral mount in Hogwarts Legacy
Avalanche SoftwareThe Thestral mount is only available to those that purchase the Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe Edition and Collector’s Edition. This iconic horse is bundled alongside the Dark Arts Pack, which contains the following items:
- Thestral Mount
- Dark Arts Cosmetic Set
- Dark Arts Battle Arena
- Dark Arts Garrison Hat
However, “players with the Hogwarts Legacy Standard Edition can purchase the Dark Arts Pack in-game separately, which is otherwise available exclusively in the Deluxe Edition.”
This means that gamers who may not want to buy the more expensive version upfront will be able to access this pack separately.
Where to find Thestrals in Hogwarts Legacy
This fantastic creature can be found and captured in the North Fog Bog, north of Hogwarts Castle. Another den can be located far to the south, on the eastern shores of Marunweem Lake.
In order to catch one, players need to use de Disillusionment Charm, which allows them to get close to the Thestrals without startling them.
Outside of Thestrals, players can expect to ride a variety of mounts, with Hippogriffs and also brooms available to unlock through the game’s campaign. Being able to take to the skies on your very own Thestral mount and fly around the game’s open world is certainly a great way to explore.
