Where to Find Unicorns & How to Complete the Unique Unicorn in Hogwarts Legacy

You don't need to be a virgin maiden to catch Unicorns.

Unicorns are arguably one of the most iconic magical beasts in the Harry Potter universe and may rival the majestic Phoenixes.

If you don’t know the exact location of these beasts, this guide will answer your question on where to find Unicorns and how to complete the Unique Unicorn in Hogwarts Legacy.

Unlike other magical beasts in Hogwarts Legacy, Unicorns only have one den, which you can find in the Forbidden Forest. You can reach it by teleporting to Upper Hogsfield Floo Flame and heading northwest.

It is recommended that you unlock your broom before entering the area because it is filled with numerous enemies that can impede your progress. However, you can easily avoid all encounters by staying above the trees and only descending once you’re near the Unicorn Den.

How to Catch Unicorns in Hogwarts Legacy

Unicorns are not easy to capture, and you may have to try several times before you succeed. First, you can try to use the Disillusionment spell to get close to the beast. After that, use movement charms, like Levioso or Arresto Momentum, to prevent the Unicorn from running away. Quickly pull out your Nab-Sack and try to catch it before the spell disappears.

The den will only contain Unicorn every time you visit. That means if you want to catch several of them, you will need to wait for a couple of in-game days before another one will spawn.

How to Complete the Unique Unicorn in Hogwarts Legacy

In order to complete the quest known as The Unique Unicorn in Hogwarts Legacy, you’ll need to have progressed in the main story past the third trial. Once you do, head over and talk to Betty Bugbrooke in Hogsmeade Square to learn about a Unicorn named Hazel, starting the questline.

Go to the Unicorn Den located in the Forbidden Forest, use the Disillusionment spell to get close, then Arresto Momentum so that you can slow down and nab-sack Hazel. You can tell her apart by the unique markings she’s got all over her body.

Once you’ve got Hazel, go back to Betty Bugbrooke to complete the quest. It’s worth noting that this horse will also be available in your Vivarium back in the Room of Requirement.

That will be the end of our guide on where to find Unicorns and how to complete the Unique Unicorn in Hogwarts Legacy. If you need more help catching other magical beasts, be sure to check our guides down below.
