How to find all Daedalian Keys in Hogwarts Legacy

They aren't the keys to your heart, but they may be the keys to something after your own heart.

What lies behind the mysterious House Chest in Hogwarts Legacy? Early on in the game, you can begin the side quest The Daedalian Keys to learn about enchanted, flying keys that appear around the castle and unlock cabinets all throughout it.

After collecting all 16 of the House Tokens which are obtained through the Daedalian Keys, you’ll open the chest which grants you a special reward. So where do you find each cabinet? Here’s how to unlock the House Chest in Hogwarts Legacy with a full keys location guide.

How to unlock the House Chest in Hogwarts Legacy – Daedalian Keys location guide

It’s not hard to find the keys, so long as you keep your ears open. The keys make a sound, and they appear highlighted in blue with Revelio. The cabinets can be found at these locations, with the keys flying around nearby.

To help you find the Daedalian Keys, you should first locate the cabinets. I recommend doing this because the Daedalian Keys are always within the same vicinity as the cabinets. Also, use Revelio often. It helps a lot.

The reward for finding all the keys and cabinets

With every token collected, return to the House Chest in your common room and deposit all the tokens. You will receive a Relic House Uniform robe gear appearance that glows when you cast a spell. It’s pretty cool!

The Relic House Uniform matches the house you chose at the beginning of the game, and in my opinion, it’s the coolest-looking cloak in the entire game. Yeah hunting down all 16 Daedalian Keys can be a chore, but getting the Relic House Uniform is more than worth it.
