Increasing your Wizard Level not only allows you to take on higher level Treats with ease and unlocks features such as Potion brewing (level 3) and Professions (level 6), but gives you a trickle of reward items as you play, too. These range from Baruffio’s Brain Elixirs, Healing Potions through to the in-game currency Coins, all of which are useful as you continue to complete other things - including the many Harry Potter Wizards Unite’s SOS Assignments.

Before beginning your wizarding adventure, you’ll want to join a Hogwarts House in Harry Potter Wizards Unite. After that you’ll need to learn how to battle, so you can compete in Wizarding Challenges at Fortresses or how to use Greenhouses, so that you can perform Potion Master Notes. You can also unlock Portkey Portmanteaus and choose a profession from Auror, Magizoologist or Professor. Don’t forget to take part in the monthly Community Day event either! This is different to Niantic’s other games - for example, Pokemon Go max level cap of 40, while Ingress Prime allows players to Prestige and reset their progress back to the beginning once done. With the amount of time it took to reach the cap in those games, understandably it’ll take some time for players to reach level 60 in Harry Potter Wizards Unite. We don’t know for sure what happens when you reach max level, but we suspect you’ll receive a final wave of valuable items to take away.
