Hogwarts Legacy immerses you in the Wizarding World in this open-world RPG and allows players to meet fan-favorite characters like Peeves. Hogwarts Legacy allows players to customize their character and their wands. One of the early decisions you'll make is choosing your wand's wood type, core type, flexibility, and wand length. After you've locked in this choice, can you change your wand in Hogwarts Legacy? I have the answers.

Can you customize your wand later in Hogwarts Legacy?

Unfortunately, after you have visited Olivanders and picked your wand, you cannot customize the wand any further in Hogwarts Legacy. I accidently chose the wrong type (again,) so I was left disgruntled when there was nothing I could do. Though, there are ways you can slightly customize the wand later with Wand Handles. You cannot change the look of it or the core. In my experience, the core doesn't get brought up again, so you can roleplay whatever wand you desire.

If you have created your wand using your Harry Potter Fan Club account, as I did, you have one last chance to customize it further in-game when you get to Olivanders. Be sure to choose your wand carefully, as you cannot change your wand after this point.

As you start playing Hogwarts Legacy, you'll begin to unlock Wand Handles. These replace the grip of your wand with something new. This will not change the look of your whole wand, only adding minor customization changes to the handle of your wand. Wand handles are cosmetic items unlocked by completing challenges and awards for completing quest objectives. Wand handles can be added to your wand in the Gear menu.

Wand Handles do not alter or change your stats in any way. They are purely for aesthetics.
