Opening Chests with Eyes in Hogwarts Legacy

Eye Chests are giant white chests with an eyeball on the front, as the name might have given away. These sentient chests will automatically lock up if you come too close, and cannot be opened through conventional means.

Opening the Eye Chests requires the Disillusionment Charm, which Sebastian Sellow will teach players in the ‘Secret of the Restricted Section’ main quest early in the game. The spell allows you to cloak yourself and turn invisible.

Once you’ve got this spell, all you need to do is use the Disillusionment Charm just out of the vision of the Eye Chest. Once invisible, simply walk up to the Eye Chest to open it.

The good news is that the charm gives you plenty of time to head over to the chests, so you’re not rushing against time in order to crack them open.

What’s Inside Hogwarts Legacy Eye Chests?

Every Eye Chest contains 500 Galleons, making these a great way of making money if you are low on cash and have remembered where they are located. The Eye Chests are placed all around Hogwarts and Hogsmeade, and casting the Revelio spell will make them easier to find.

That is how to open Eye Chests in Hogwarts Legacy. Check back with Twinfinite for more Hogwarts Legacy coverage and click on the links below for other helpful guides for the game.
