Hogwarts Legacy grants players access to an extensive array of spells, yet changing and equipping them can be confusing. Here’s a simple explanation of how to switch spells in Hogwarts Legacy.
Hogwarts Legacy offers players an extensive range of magical possibilities, boasting an abundance of spells ready for selection at any point. Understanding the process of navigating and employing these options is pivotal for mastering the game’s mechanics.
Spells can be unlocked by either progressing through the game’s story, beating new enemies, or even just discovering new ones along the way. So you’re constantly going to be upgrading and swapping things out as you progress.
Different spells deal damage or affect your opponents in unique ways from one another. Or they can even be used to complete assignments. Thus, knowing which spells to use when and where is essential, meaning you will need to switch around spells quite frequently. Here’s how it’s done.

In Hogwarts Legacy, you can only have four magic spells on your action bar at a time. Each one corresponds to one of the face buttons. So if you want to equip a different set of spells, you will need to know how to change them in the menus.
