<\/p>\nThe Vivarium in Hogwarts Legacy functions as a sanctuary for your animals. While you can tame a lot of creatures, most of them will be the regular variant with maybe a slight difference in color. Here’s how you can find rare Shiny Beasts for your Vivarium in Hogwarts Legacy.<\/p>\n
The trick to getting a Shiny Beast in Hogwarts Legacy is making them spawn in the first place. This is completely random, and it can be quite a hassle. As such, your best bet is to do the following:<\/p>\n
– The first step is to find a particular beast and go to its den. You usually won’t find a shiny one there.<\/p>\n
– You can catch several Shinies even if you don’t see a Shiny. Puffskein and Mooncalf dens tend to have four or more animals lounging around.<\/p>\n
– Once you’ve collected several or even all of them, open your map and press the button prompt to change the day-night cycle (the “F” key for PC players).<\/p>\n
– You can then manually save your game.<\/p>\n
– Then click restart from the last save.<\/p>\n
When the day-night cycle is combined with saving and reloading, the game will replace missing creatures with Shiny Beasts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Make Shinies appear more often by using the creature respawn trick.<\/p>\n
So, how exactly do you distinguish Hogwarts Legacy Shiny Beasts from regular variants? Most of the time, they have a star icon on their nameplate, and they usually come in different colors. Shiny Puffskeins, for instance, have white fur, while most Puffskeins are gray, brown, black, or red.<\/p>\n
The shiny icon can also be seen in your Inventory: Magical Beasts tab. While breeding animals is feasible in the game, we have yet to see a shiny variant of an offspring.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
To denote their rarity, Shiny Beasts have a star icon and a vastly different color.<\/p>\n
The trick described above works for all Beast Dens in Hogwarts Legacy, but it might be difficult to obtain Shiny Beasts for the following types:<\/p>\n
Unicorn – In the game, there is only one unicorn den, which only spawns once per day. We did make our luck with the Shiny variant, which has a golden brown color.<\/p>\n
Phoenix – Phoenixes that you can tame are one of a kind, and will not spawn again.<\/p>\n
Graphorn – While the Graphorn will spawn again in its den, capturing it with the Nab-sack requires defeating it first.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Graphorns do respawn, but it requires a new fight to trigger a variant reroll. Due to this, we have yet to see a shiny version of the Magical Beast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
