Hogwarts Legacy: Can you change the time of day? Hogwarts Legacy guide

On this guide page, you will learn how to change the time of day in Hogwarts Legacy. We explain how to activate the option to speed up the passage of time and whether changing the time has use in the game (collectibles, availability of locations).

Last update: Tuesday, February 7, 2023

Hogwarts Legacy has a fully-fledged day and night cycle as a feature, so you'll experience smooth transitions from day to night and night to day. On this page, we show whether you can manually change the current time of the day e.g. by accelerating the passage of time to transition to nighttime instantly. Moreover, we answer the question whether changing the time of day has any practical use e.g. in terms of the availability of secrets or accessing locations in the world.

Changing the time of day - uses

The main reason you may have to change the time of day is that some collectibles and activities are only available at certain times of the day. Most of the time, we are talking about night-time activities.

The best examples here are Demiguise Statues which are a category of collectibles. Interacting with them yield Demiguise Moons which can only be harvested at night. At daytime, these statues cannot be interacted with.

Another use you may have for changing the time of day could be situations where you need to sneak into a castle location, which preferably should be done at night - Hogwarts Legacy: Can you change the time of day? - Combat and exploration - Hogwarts Legacy Guide
