Reddit user khasbrown recently shared a video of a particularly interesting Hogsmeade shop inHogwarts Legacy. The shop is called Bingle & Blatch, and it’s the building directly northeast of theSouth Hogsmeade fast-travel point. The shop has three doors players can use to enter it, and each one gives the shop a completely different appearance. Many players responded to the Reddit post with surprise, as they had never noticed this detail in all their time playing the open worldHarry PotterRPG. One user warned about saving in the shop, as it has been known to mess with one’s save, but we were unable to replicate the issue in our testing.
