That’s why we’ve 12 classes from D&D, including Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, Warlock, and Wizard, with a total of 46 subclasses between them for some extra spice and specialization. But how you appear doesn’t define who you are. Well, a version of you based on your choice of Human, Dwarf, Githyanki, Elf, Drow, Tiefling, Halfling, Half-Elf, Gnome, Half-Orc, or Dragonborn. Baldur’s Mouth will be writing about you, so it’s important you make a bold impression. Define your body type, your age, and looks – right down to the highlights in your hair. Who you are, what you look like, and how you want to play is up to you.

Character creation is such a central part of D&D, and in Baldur’s Gate 3, we wanted players to experience the same kind of freedom when shaping their own identity. Whether you have the stature of a gnome or the muscle tone of a half-orc, it all begins with a hero. Create a character who looks like you, or make something completely different

We’ve talked about how Baldur’s Gate 3 is an ambitious game, so let’s take a look at some of the features you can expect when it launches on September 6, or for those of you with the Deluxe Edition, September 3. We’ll be emailing you codes so you can jump in on September 3, at the start of the September 3 72-hour Early Access period that comes with the Deluxe Edition. For those of you who purchased our gigantic Collector’s Edition (limited stock still available), don’t worry, we’ve got your back. This brief delay allows us more time to achieve our ambition of 60 frames per second, thanks to the power of PlayStation 5. Originally due to launch on August 31, we’ve decided to release Baldur’s Gate 3 for PS5 on September 6. The dice may define your luck, but you define the story. We’ve written two-million words of dialogue across the thousands of characters that populate the world of Faerûn, with an exhilarating story and in-depth character creation that puts you at the helm of the adventure. We’ve spent the last six years bringing the unlimited freedom D&D is known for into the realm of video games. A great, big, uncompromising RPG! It shows in the numbers: more than 170 hours of cinematics and featuring three times more cinematic dialogue than all three The Lord of the Rings novels combined, a library of more than 600 spells and actions, and plenty more.ĭungeons & Dragons is all about player freedom – the freedom to define your character, to explore vast territories with your allies, and decide the fate of the world.
