Cross-platform multiplayer with Steam is supported.
Gather your party, and return to the Forgotten Realms in a tale of fellowship and betrayal, sacrifice and survival, and the lure of absolute power.
Mysterious abilities are awakening inside you, drawn from a Mind Flayer parasite planted in your brain. Resist, and turn darkness against itself. Or embrace corruption, and become ultimate evil.
From the creators of Divinity: Original Sin 2 comes a next-generation RPG, set in the world of Dungeons and Dragons.
Choose from a wide selection of D&D races and classes, or play as an origin character with a hand-crafted background. Adventure, loot, battle and romance as you journey through the Forgotten Realms and beyond. Play alone, and select your companions carefully, or as a party of up to four in multiplayer.
Abducted, infected, lost. You are turning into a monster, but as the corruption inside you grows, so does your power. That power may help you to survive, but there will be a price to pay, and more than any ability, the bonds of trust that you build within your party could be your greatest strength. Caught in a conflict between devils, deities, and sinister otherworldly forces, you will determine the fate of the Forgotten Realms together.
Forged with the new Divinity 4.0 engine, Baldur’s Gate 3 gives you unprecedented freedom to explore, experiment, and interact with a world that reacts to your choices. A grand, cinematic narrative brings you closer to your characters than ever before, as you venture through our biggest world yet.
The Forgotten Realms are a vast, detailed and diverse world, and there are secrets to be discovered all around you -- verticality is a vital part of exploration. Sneak, dip, shove, climb, and jump as you journey from the depths of the Underdark to the glittering rooftops of the Upper City. How you survive, and the mark you leave on the world, is up to you.
allows you to combine your forces in combat, and split your party to follow your own quests and agendas. Concoct the perfect plan together… or introduce an element of chaos when your friends least expect it.
offer a hand-crafted experience, each with their own unique traits, agenda, and outlook on the world. Their stories intersect with the entire narrative, and your choices will determine whether those stories end in redemption, salvation, domination, or many other outcomes.
based on the D&D 5e ruleset. Team-based initiative, advantage & disadvantage, and roll modifiers join combat cameras, expanded environmental interactions, and a new fluidity in combat that rewards strategy and foresight.
through your choices, and the roll of the dice. No matter who you play, or what you roll, the world and its inhabitants will react to your story.
allows you to pause the world around you at any time even outside of combat. Whether you see an opportunity for a tactical advantage before combat begins, want to pull off a heist with pin-point precision, or need to escape a fiendish trap. Split your party, prepare ambushes, sneak in the darkness -- create your own luck!
Just like Baldur's Gate was for 2nd edition and Neverwinter Nights was for 3rd edition, this will be the definitive depiction of the 5th edition rules in video game format. BG3 does a great job telling a quinessential Forgotten Realms story that anyone playing 5e modules will feel at home with. That being said, it is a great place for newcomers to jump in and learn or for people that don't have the time/ability to play tabletop games to fall in love with the system and world(s).
I've plunked over 100 hours into this game and we're still not even out of the beta. I am basing this review on what i've played and on the assumption that we will get more of the same as updates continue.
I have played many many hours BG1 and BG2 more than 15 years ago and BG3 is a worthy modern successor. Too bad it is still crashing randomly to desktop for no reason. The Larian launcher then wipes my all my settings and resets the tutorials, nope thanks, will never use the launcher ever again. Also I thought Larian would make D&D rules more approachable, but instead the game throws (harhar) everything all at once at you and overwhelms with dicey (harhar) stat mechanics. How do know which spells to choose or feats to learn? It's just so much stuff going on that at some point I just gave up and played on a whim. BUT: besides all that the game is still great, feels far more complete than other 60$ AAA budgeted titles and I hope Larian gets a hold those freakin crashes.
But I liked the game.
It's a shame that the developers didn't integrate auto-save through GOG Galaxy. To synchronise your saves, you need to have an account on the developers' website and go to the game settings and enable cross-platform. In this way, your saves can be retrieved directly from the developer's website.
I'm having fun playing this game, even though I haven't fully understood all the mechanics. I was able to defeat one boss and saved a pregnant woman, I'm happy because it was hard.
I'm glad that the game is also available on GOG
I was originally lured to the game seeing as the previous releases of Baldur's Gate & Neverwinter Nights were actually true to the Dungeons & Dragons aspect of literally being able to choose more than just 2 endings & every decision you make changes not just the outcome but also the encounters & storyline. I am not writing this review for any other reason than to save the poor sucker who will think that they are getting a similar title to their previous games or even a game at all -- just a pure waste of time & an overpriced title claiming to be "indie" but requires a studio of imbeciles that list longer than a fantasy movie title. As far as I'm concerned, Larian is a complete fad, the team is incompetent (don't even get me started on the bugs which should have been completely ironed out ofter 2 years... like the whole camera is a bug & most of the "mathematics" they claim to adhere to would fail them all aspects kindergarten... it's not hard to implement a real dice, truly, but look yonder... you can roll the same number dozens of times in a row with or without weighting to a point where you question if luck is hard coded in the game or not), the storytelling a complete joke if you can even call it that & finally, just 2 possible endings: world domination or pathetically mangled biblical narrative. Nay, just take your money elsewhere, this is a complete joke. I'd force my way to refund but I'm not petty seeing as it is all a colossal waste of effort on the studio's part & I pity them for trying to steal from good old games & failing at it miserably. Besides, most of the game feels like it is just a pagan attack on monotheism used as a subtle means to hijack the classical biblical narrative in every way with their "absolute authoritah" nonsense with you either being the jew that saves or dominates. Sorry, sorry, Illithid. That's what I meant. Why bother in the first place & just die on the nautiloid & spare the effort. Larian are the true woke communist Illithid.
