Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops are back to mark the game’s imminent Xbox One and PlayStation 4 release later this week.
But what can you earn, and how do you go about it? We’re here to answer that question – and to help you claim those exclusive cosmetics just by watching your favourite streamers play the game on Twitch. It’s fairly straightforward, and you’ll be able to get the Professor Ronen Cosmetic Set and the Merlin Cloak for your trouble.
So here’s everything you need to know about Hogwarts Legacy’s Twitch Drops.
Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops – what can I get?
For the game’s latest set of Twitch Drops, there’s two sets of items up for grabs. One of these is specifically for watching the development team play the game in a special stream marking the previous gen version’s release. The other can be earned by watching any streamer playing Hogwarts Legacy with Twitch Drops enabled during the programme’s period.
Legacy Live Exclusive Twitch Drop
- Merlin’s Cloak
Professor Ronen Cosmetic Set Twitch Drops
- Charms Professor Spectacles
- Charms Professor Gloves
- Charms Professor Outfit
- Charms Professor Robe
- Charms Professor Tasselled Kufi
- Charms Professor Scarf
Each of these drops after 30 minutes, consecutively. So you’ll get the Charms Professor Spectacles after 30 minutes, the Charms Professor Gloves after 60 minutes and so on.
As mentioned – you can get a further cosmetic by watching the developer’s official channel. Tune into the Avalanche Software channel for 20 minutes and you’ll get the Merlin’s Cloak appearance for your cloak and Robes appearance slot.
When can I claim Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops?
The current crop of Twitch drops will be available from May 5, 2023 until June 1, 2023. However, the Merlin’s Cloak drop will only be available during the Avalanche Software stream, which takes place on May 5 at 9am PT.
How can I claim Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops?
To be eligible for Hogwarts Legacy drops, you must first go through a few steps. First, sign up for a WB Games account through the WB Games website.
Then, you must connect your WB Games account to your Twitch account – to do this, on the dedicated Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops page, navigate to ‘Connect’ then sign in.
A window should then appear, asking you to click to continue. Do so, and then return to the Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops page and refresh to check if your account has indeed connected.
Then, it’s just a case of watching your favourite streamer playing the game – and ensuring they’ve got Drops Enabled. Once you’ve watched for the required time, check your Twitch Inventory and you should see the ability to claim your new cosmetics.
However, you will also need to claim your drops on the Hogwarts Legacy Twitch Drops site before they’ll appear in game – so make sure you do so.
