What is the Dark Arts Battle Arena in Hogwarts Legacy?
The in-game description of the Dark Arts Battle Arena in Hogwarts Legacy says: “Fight waves of enemies in this Battle Arena with the Unforgivable Curses, Avada Kedavra, Imperio, and Crucio, as well as the Blasting Curse, Confringo. In addition to their unique and devastating effects, Unforgivable Curses break through all Shield Charms.”
Essentially, it’s a wave-based combat arena in which you fight evil enemies, and deadly spells such as Avada Kerdavra, also known as The Killing Curse, are in play.
These are also extra objectives for players to complete during the middle of these gauntlets, and Hogwarts Legacy will presumably reward players for the successful completion of the challenge and its sub-tasks.
