The ability to submerge oneself underwater is absent from initial gameplay in the open-world action role-playing game set in the Wizarding World. The game mechanics lack a dedicated “dive” action mapped to a specific control. Instead, interaction with underwater environments relies on acquired abilities and specific quest-related instances.
The absence of a universal underwater exploration mechanic influences gameplay strategy. Players must adapt to traverse watery areas using alternative methods. Certain magical spells or potions may temporarily grant the ability to breathe underwater or move more freely in aquatic environments. This limitation encourages resourcefulness and strategic planning in navigating specific areas of the game world.
