Sep 09, 2024 12:46 PM

A recent breakthrough in the modding community for Baldur's Gate 3 has emerged with the release of the BG3 Toolkit Unlocked mod. This mod allows players to access the complete developer toolkit from Larian Studios, enabling full creation of custom content, campaigns, and more within this Dungeons & Dragons-based role-playing game. Initially, Larian's CEO stated that modding support would not be as extensive as it was for their previous title, Divinity: Original Sin 2, because of the complexity of the tools. However, the unexpected availability of the complete toolkit through this mod has excited players, resulting in over a million installations within 24 hours of its release. The game's recent Patch 7 also introduced several new features, including new endings and treated fans to a wealth of content. With tremendous player interest still ongoing months after its launch, Baldur's Gate 3 continues to redefine expectations for CRPGs.
