Where to find All Hogwarts Legacy Daedalian Keys Locations

There are 16 Daedalian Keys, which will unlock all the 16 House Tokens you need to open your House Chest in your common room. You can expect this quest to take a bit of time. Locating the keys is just as important as locating the cabinet which the key unlocks since this is what holds the missing Tokens. If you find the House Cabinet, the key is sure to be hovering nearby. Listen for the playful little fluttering noise indicating the key is nearby. If you spot a key, it will lead you directly to the cabinet location. Here's where you can find them:

Once you find the key and locate the proper cabinet for it, you'll need to figure out how to get the key into the lock.

As soon as the key crosses lines up with the hole, smack it with A or X. If you timed it correctly, the key will unlock the cabinet and reveal a House Crest. If not, the key will take a moment to regain its composure, and you can try again.
