Hogwarts Legacy has done a splendid job of implementing brooms into the game. Some might say that developers should have made them available right from the beginning, but that’s a topic for another day. Broomsticks are a major part of Hogwarts Legacy’s core gameplay. They are hard to get rid of once you get used to them. Traveling on your broom is not only fun, but it also cuts down on travel time, making it easier to commute between locations without Floo Flames.
So, if you can’t wait to get your hands on one, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll begin by discussing when you unlock your first broom and move onto the different categories you can later upgrade into once you have enough galleons. Let’s begin!
How to unlock a broom in Hogwarts Legacy
You’ll have to learn how to fly before you unlock your first broom. Complete the Jackdaw’s Rest Quest to receive the prompt to attend flying lessons. After completing the main quest Flying Class you’ll obtain the ability to use brooms.
How to get all Broomsticks in Hogwarts Legacy
Here is a list of all the Broomsticks in the game, where you can find them, and their overall cost:
| Broomsticks | Location | Cost/Challenge |
|---|---|---|
| Aeromancer | Buy from Rohan Prakash | 3,000 galleons |
| Bright Spark | Win from the balloons challenge | 32 sets of balloons |
| Ember Dash | Buy from Spintwitches Sporting Needs | 600 galleons |
| Family Antique | Bought from Priya Treadwell | 2,500 galleons |
| Hogwarts House | Buy from Spintwitches Sporting Needs | 600 galleons |

As you can see from the list, there is a wide range of brooms available at Hogwarts Legacy. However, an expensive broom doesn’t correlate to more power. It’s all cosmetic. Every broom is simply unique in appearance. There aren’t any competitive games like Quidditch or anything else, so there is no need for faster brooms.
How to upgrade your broom in Hogwarts Legacy?
You’ll have to complete several time based side quests in order to upgrade your Broom in Hogwarts Legacy. The goal of the races is to fly through the bubbles in an attempt to refill your boost meter.
After winning those quests, head over to Mr. Weeke’s shop to have him start working on your next upgrade. In addition to the quests, you’ll also need to spend galleons for each upgrade. So make sure to save a few thousand coins before attempting the quest.
