Launch Trailer for the Epic D&D Fantasy Game BALDUR'S GATE 3
Baldur’s Gate 3 launches today, and so far for me I’m looking at a 10-hour download! I’ve also been seeing reports that at one point it had broken Steam. Well, with the launch of the highly-anticipated game comes a launch trailer for fans to enjoy!
The game is set in the Dungeons & Dragons universe and it is going to give fans an incredible gameplay experience! I’m very excited about this game and it seems like it’s going to be unlike any other fantasy game that’s come before.
In the game, “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.”
The game has an expansive story that is reported to have 17,000 possible variations to its ending, which is insane! “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.”
It’s explained that no adventure will be the same: “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.”
The game is now available on PC and Mac and then on PS5 on August 31st. It will also eventually come to Xbox.
