Where can you find the octopus?
In Hogwarts Legacy, the Kraken can only be found by chance in the lake around the castle. Similar to the dragon, the kraken appears randomly and there is currently no way to attract and spawn the kraken. If you fly around the lake a little, you can see the giant octopus every now and then and stretch its tentacles out of the water. But there is one exception where you can always find at least the kraken’s tentacles. The exception is the Slytherin common room. In the Slytherin common room you can close the window with the basic spell and a few seconds later the octopus will hit its tentacle against the window. In another article we have already shown where you can find the Slytherin common room.
Can you feed the octopus?
You cannot interact with the Kraken. There is no possibility of interaction when you are close to it, nor can you feed the octopus by, for example, bringing a cow or another animal/object to it.
Find and enter the Kraken cave
Anyone who has already explored the world around Hogwarts Castle a little will probably have discovered the entrance to a small cave in the rocks to the east of the castle. In the cave you can see a tapestry or mosaic with the giant octopus. Many players assume that this is the “octopus cave” in which the monster can be found, but that is not entirely the case. To enter the “Krakenhöhle” you have to complete Scropes’ side quests as a Slytherin (not possible with other houses). In the Scropes quest called “Last Hope” you can enter the octopus caves and find some treasure there, but not the giant octopus.
Tip: This is how you can ride the giant dragon in Hogwarts Legacy.
