Some Hogwarts Legacy players are unable to reach the max level in the game. Hogwarts Legacy is an open-world RPG, and it includes a leveling up system, skill trees, and an equipment system similar to other games in this genre. Players get XP for completing various tasks and activities present in the world of Hogwarts Legacy, and they can further increase their combat skills by investing points into one of its talent trees.
Hogwarts Legacy features five skill trees that allow users to enhance their core abilities, upgrade individual spells, improve stealth capabilities, and more. As an example, gamers can invest these points to increase the amount of HP they get upon using a Wiggenweld Potion or gain the ability to use Accio on multiple enemies at the same time. Users gain one point upon leveling up in Hogwarts Legacy, but it looks like an issue is preventing some fans from getting to the max level.
A Reddit user named Cacophonous_Euphoria claims that they cannot reach level 40 in Hogwarts Legacy despite getting 100% completion. The player mentions that there is nothing new for them to do in Hogwarts Legacy, as they have fully completed all the challenges and quests in the game, and they cannot gain any more XP to reach the max level. The user states that they are only missing two achievements in Hogwarts Legacy, one for getting the max level and the other for spending all talent points, so this issue is preventing them from unlocking all the achievements.
They have reported the bug, and it seems like a few other players are also facing this issue, as gamers in the comments section discuss the possibility of Cacophonous_Euphoria missing out on a piece of side content. One user ran into the same problem, as the icon for leveling up is full, but it’s stuck at 39 with nothing else for them to complete and no other way to obtain XP. Fans cannot simply defeat enemies to get more XP, as it looks to be tied to the challenges system of Hogwarts Legacy, which the Reddit poster has already completed.
Another player claims to have encountered the same issue, but they found an extra side quest called Portrait in a Pickle, which ultimately allowed them to reach level 40 in Hogwarts Legacy. However, Cacophonous_Euphoria reiterates that they have already completed all the side quests in Hogwarts Legacy, so it may just be a bug in their playthrough.
Hogwarts Legacy is out now for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, with PS4 and Xbox One versions coming April 4 and a Switch port dropping July 25.
