How to unlock the Thestral mount in Hogwarts Legacy

As of writing, the Thestral mount is 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

According to Hogwarts Legacy’s FAQ section, 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 down the line at a later date.

Outside of Thestrals, players can expect to ride a variety of mounts, with Hippogriffs and 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.

There you have it, that’s everything you need to know about how you can get the Thestral Mount in Hogwarts Legacy. Make sure you check out our Hogwarts Legacy page for all the latest news and guides.
