How To Solve The Chess Puzzle In Hogwarts Legacy

Depending on the chess piece, you must place the piece in a way that it attacks the Black King. Usually, the missing piece is the bishop, which in that case, you must place diagonally to the Black King. However, if it’s another piece, you must place it on the board according to that piece to solve the chess puzzle.
Moves Of Chess Pieces
Don’t worry If you are new to chess. Here are all the pieces and their moves that you need to learn in order to solve the chess puzzle:
- Pawn: Moves forward one square at a time. Pawns capture other pieces diagonally, one square ahead of them. Pawns can never move backward.
Pawn Chest Piece - Rook: Moves in a straight line either horizontally or vertically. It can move as many squares as it wants until it reaches the end of the board or another piece blocks its path.
Rook Chest Piece - Knight: Moves in an L-shape pattern: two squares in a straight line, and then one square to the left or right. Knights are the only pieces that can jump over other pieces.
Knight Chest Piece - Bishop: Moves diagonally in a straight line. It can move as many squares as it wants until it reaches the end of the board or another piece blocks its path.
Bishop Chest Piece - Queen: The most powerful piece, which can move in any direction: horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. It can move as many squares as it wants until it reaches the end of the board or another piece blocks its path.
Queen Chest Piece - King: Moves one square in any direction. The king is the most important piece, and the game is over when the king is in checkmate (i.e. when it is under attack and cannot escape capture).
King Chest Piece
If you get any of the chess pieces after using transformation, you must remember their moves and attack the Black King in Hogwarts Legacy to solve the chess puzzle.
After doing so, the Black King will be destroyed and the chess puzzle will be solved, and the treasure chest will be revealed.
