Sebastian in Hogwarts Legacy

Players are given a ton of choices in Hogwarts Legacy, with some having more impact than others. One such choice is turning Sebastian Sallow in or saving him. This can be a difficult decision if you’re unaware of the consequences. So here’s how each choice affects your progress.

Hogwarts Legacy‘s huge map takes players all around the Wizarding World on several different paths, where they interact with friends, foes, and magical creatures. Many of these interactions put players in a position where they have to make a choice in order to continue with the story.

In many cases, it is also indicative of the qualities you’ll have as a Witch or Wizard after you’re sorted into your house and selected a wand. That being said, players who want to lean towards the dark side can do so freely due to the lack of a morality system in the game.

During the main story, players are given a choice: whether or not to turn in Sebastian Sallow during the Shadow of Fate quest. Here’s everything you need to know about the consequences of your choice.

What happens if you turn in Sebastian in Hogwarts Legacy?

If you choose to turn Sebastian in for his crimes, he will be expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and you will not be able to see him again, but this will not happen if you decide not to report him.

If you haven’t learned how to cast Avada Kedavra and you turn Sabastian in then you will not be able to learn this Unforgivable Curse at any later point in your playthrough of the game.

Should you turn in Sebastian Sallow in Hogwarts Legacy?

You should not turn in Sebastian Sallow if you want to become a Dark Wizard in Hogwarts Legacy. Crucio, Imperio, and Avada Kedavra can only be learned by selecting the right dialogue choices during Sallow’s quest line.

However, if you don’t care about learning these Unforgivable Curses then you can turn him in. Doing so will result in Sebastian Sallow being sent off to Azkaban and he won’t appear in the ending.

Ultimately, it comes down to your own personal preference. Now that you know the exact consequences of both choices, it will be much easier to decide what you want to do in this Quest.
