Diagon Alley is open for all but there is a catch. Here is how to unlock Diagon Alley in Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery.
Diagon Alley has been teasing Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery players for some time now. Ever since it popped up in Year 4 as a locked out option, it’s been infuriating. But now it is open for all, but there is a catch. Here is how to unlock Diagon Alley in Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery.
