Unlocking the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts Legacy requires you to complete a quest that is aptly named The Room of Requirement. Given that this quest is a part of the game’s main story, there’s no chance for you to miss out on this one.

During the course of this quest, you will come across Professor Weasley and Deek, the house elf.

This specific quest only appears after you have completed the Tomes and Tribulations quest, so make sure to keep an eye out for this one to know for sure that you’re on the right path to unlock the Room of Requirement.
