Finally, after many years and months of waiting, we are only a few days away from diving into the vast world of Hogwarts Legacy. The game will officially be released on February 10th, but those who’ve pre-ordered the Deluxe edition can have early access on February 7th. So there are some people who’ve already started enjoying the game and might have struggled in some areas. The Hogwarts Legacy chests with the eye are one of the many ways you can find resources in Hogwarts Legacy, so here’s how to open Eye Chests if you’re unsure.
How to Open Eye Chests in Hogwarts Legacy
If you have wandered around Hogwarts, you have probably seen some strange-looking chests with big eyes in the center. These chests are known as Eye Chests, and like almost everything in the Magical World, they can only be opened with magic.
The trick with Eye Chests is that the second they see a person, or in this case your character approaching, they will be locked, and there is no way to open them. So you have to sneak up on them, but then you wonder how can you sneak up on something from the front.
In case you’ve forgotten, this is a world filled with magic, and you can solve this problem with a spell called Disillusionment. By using this spell, you will become invisible for a short period of time, and then you can sneak up and open the chests with the eye.

While you would usually learn spells in classrooms, there are spells that you can only learn from adventuring around. This is also the case for the Disillusionment spell that you can learn during the Secrets of the Restricted Section quest.
There is no definitive time to say when you will unlock this quest. Since Hogwarts Legacy is an RPG game, how to proceed with main and side quests and how long it takes you to complete them will determine when you will get the Disillusionment spell. Opening Eye Chests will reward you with 500 Galleons that you can use to purchase items for yourself.
All Rewards in Hogwarts Chests with Eye
The chests with eyes all feature the same reward, which is 500 gold galleons. Given there are so many scattered throughout Hogwarts and the surrounding areas, you’ll quickly earn lots of gold after opening a few. That’s why we’ve ranked it amongst our top recommendations of how to earn money fast in the game.
