Aug 14, 2023Excellent game, excellent history, excellent combat mode, a master piece and lesson for other companies of the industry. Congratulations Larian Studios for this excellent job. I can't stop playing.
-
Aug 15, 2023The best RPG based on a tabletop role-playing game! There is a very well-ported system of the fifth edition of D&D with a bunch of its own additions that make the game more interesting and more comfortable.

Aug 14, 2023a masterpiece and a must-play game
every 10 years you will play such a wonderful game in unique world -
Aug 15, 2023One of the best games i have ever played. The attention on detail is incredible and the story for far is really good.Companions are complex, maps are really large and with many hidden stuff and quests.
Game of the year for me.As the story progressing the atmosphere is getting a lot more creepy and dark! -
Aug 14, 2023The new stand to CRPG. You MUST play this masterpiece! This may be my favorite game of all time
-
Aug 26, 2023Best time I’ve had playing a game since I was a kid. And I have never liked turn based games before this one.
-
Aug 15, 2023As I played the baldur's gate 1 and 2, I'm loving the Baldur's gate 3, the larian hit everything, is a kind of divinity with the system of neverwinter nights 2, is fantastico, recommend to all.
-
Aug 21, 2023Best game ever. Played divinity 2 and genuinely thought that was one of the best games I have ever played and this genuinely tops that.
-
Aug 7, 2023
-
Aug 18, 2023I was a bit nervous since one of my favorite games of all times was divinity 2 and I was worried this wouldn't live up to the high bar it set. But it turns out I was worrying for nothing and I'm having just as much fun in this game.
-
Aug 15, 2023I've always found D&D pretty daunting. Never really played CRPGs. This is a breath of fresh air. 40 hours in and barely half way through the story. Great story, great characters (not you Gale). Played this game until 2a.m. on day 1 and had to force myself to go to bed. A game hasn't gripped me like this since my teenage years. Bravo Larian!

Aug 26, 2023One of the best games ever. You can literally do anything. You can see the passion and love that has gone into this game to create a vision, a plan, an idea. The ultimate game.
-
Aug 14, 2023Absolutely perfectly perfect! I feel like a kid again and enjoying every second of it!
-
Aug 12, 2023Definitely the new standard especially for AAA. So much fun online and I bet lots of great expansions coming!

-
Aug 15, 2023GOTY sem duvida, 1000x melhor que o zelda com grafico de Android, jogabilidade e história incrivel.
-
Aug 12, 2023El mejor juego de RPG de la década , casi que del siglo , casi en general , casi pero existe pou El juego es demaciado completo , se siente el poder de la decisiones que se toman ya sea para bien o para mal , muy fácil de comprender sin tantos sistemas densos que dificulten el acceso a jugadores nuevos en el género , simplemente GOTY
-
Aug 11, 2023The best game i had in a while . Very interesting game play, amazing cut scenes, non linear etc etc etc only positive . Highly recommend to anyone. Even my wife who is far away from gaming are playing it
-
Aug 19, 2023Baldur's Gate 3 is a masterpiece combining brilliantly written interactive storytelling with an engaging tactical combat system amid a dense open world.
Every detail is purposeful. -
Aug 16, 2023Masterpiece.
A class on gender and a class for the whole industry in different ways. -
Aug 5, 2023The best RPG ever! Thanks Larian Studios for amasing games! 10/10 GOTY 2023.

Aug 24, 2023Awsome game. This is how games should be released. No microtransactions or season passes. Complete game for the price.
-
Aug 15, 2023jogo e muito top ok melhor que o zelda . o jogo tem que ser GOTY 2023 se não for Goty e por causa das mídias merda que favorece sempre a Nintendo ou a Sony . ok . e goty porra.

Aug 5, 2023Didn't think I'd say this, but I found a better game than Divinity Original Sin 2
-
Aug 6, 2023It's a new standard for RPGs, lots of options, characters, spells, missions and in general a lot of ways to play like you prefer.
-
Sep 6, 202310/10 Greatest CRPGs ever made. Words are not enough to describe this game. PERFECT
-
Aug 26, 2023Exactly what RPG gaming needed! Fresh, fun, naughty, deep and overall brilliant game. Voice acting is on point, character animation is quality and gameplay is engaging and quite simply put, a butt ton of fun!
Well done to everyone involved with the creation of this game, easily my number 1 pick for favourite game. -

-
Sep 7, 2023The best game I ever played. At some points a little bit buggy and slow. But this is to be expected by such a huge game. You can play many times and after I finished the game the first time I rushed to make a new character. I just can't stop playing in the best way possible!
-
Aug 26, 2023
-
Aug 7, 2023Just the best RPG ever, a must play for sure. Its world, its characters, its reactivity, just everything is on top. There are so many ways you can solve quests its unbelievable.

Aug 22, 2023Just it is so goooood for my heart to see, that there are people and companies that can do something that good in modern "state" of this f**king planet
-
Aug 23, 2023As someone who is not very familiar with the D&d system, it takes some time to get used to the game, but they have built such an exciting world that I keep thinking about the game.Thanks for the Turkish language support.

-
Aug 17, 2023The best RPG I've played in decades! A pinnacle of gaming that everyone should try out! The music, the atmosphere, the narrative, the gameplay, the combat and so on are so beautifully crafted that it's leaving me wondering what happens next every time I stop playing it for the day!

Aug 16, 2023An absolute masterpiece....For the absolute ;)
The choices/consequences are immense....All parts are truly different
As with Elden Ring, there will be a "before" and an "after" Baldur's Gate !!! -
Sep 6, 2023I forgot the last time I played an RPG with writing this good. Game developers have been really lazy in my opinion about their writing but this game does not disappoint. A really good game, its got my vote for Game of the Year.

Aug 14, 2023Melhor qame que já joguei na vida!
Olha que nao sou fã de rpg de mesa. Entretanto, o game é tão perfeito que chega beirar a perfeição. Acho que é o primeiro AAAA do mundo -
Sep 7, 2023This game is truly captivating and is an absolute must-buy, whether you are an cRPG fan or not.
People are missing out on this masterpiece, if they don't play it through. -
Aug 20, 202312/10 if I could. Larian show everyone that there is still hope for us, that good game without modern "give me all your money" technics can be created. 200h in game and I still drop my jaw. I can only ask for more stories in this incredible world, in the future.
-
Aug 28, 2023Masterpiece of a game, showing how with just spending enough time and dedication, you can make one of the best games on the market
-
Aug 23, 2023Simply the best RPG in the past 10 years
It's wonderful to see CRPG coming back with full glory -
Aug 26, 2023O verdadeiro RPG de mesa. O único onde você basicamente fazer de tudo e ainda assim o jogo não quebra.
-

Aug 10, 2023El juego es precioso. Los combates són increibles. El mundo se ve vivo y espectacular.
La interfaz y la forma de ejecutar el roleteo me gusta mucho.
Lo único que me falla es la sobreexplotación de la acción directa y los pocos personajes recutables.
Tema lore e historia ya veremos... -
Aug 5, 2023I love this game. I played early acces for 25 hours. And now i have already spend next to 50 hours in the first part. I am a good boy in rl so i love stealing and doing bad things in BG3. The narrative is awsome. Malady's voice from Divnity 2 makes me feel warm and at home in this game. Larian i love you for making this game. Goed gedaaaan
-
Aug 16, 2023Excellent game. First CRPG for me. But absolutely love it. I have already sunk dozens of hours in and haven't even cleared the first act.
-
Aug 10, 2023I'm usually not one for story games, but this game has really good writing.
The devs put a lot of work into this game for sure; you can feel it just from the first few hours of gameplay.
I made an account to write this review, by the way.
That explains how good this game is. -

Aug 21, 2023Haven't experienced a game like this in a long time, my boyfriend and I both can't stop playing!
-
Aug 14, 2023Massive release from Larian, this game has successfully merged the open ended approach of a DnD tabletop campaign with the style of crpg Larian fans are familiar with. The story beats and impetus in the plot have honoured the previous two Baldur's gate games and the final article is something that everybody must play at least once in their lives. GOTY material right here!
-
Aug 12, 2023It sounds like RPG, tastes like RPG, and looks like an RPG, but you will find an INCREDIBLE RPG environment + everything else, I've never played a such rich game, for real.
-
Aug 22, 2023Just breath taking 10/10. I as customer got more than I cud ask, it was beyond my expectations. Big thank you for the devs!

Aug 16, 2023Baldur's Gate 3 gave me back the enjoyment and satisfaction of playing a game, after so many rushed/unpolished or just bad games over last decade. It is a shining gem - a must play if u will.
-
Aug 15, 2023Best game I played in many years. Great combat, full of surprises and wow moments.

Aug 12, 2023Absolute banger! Reminds me of golden age Bethesda/Bioware/Blizzard around 20 years ago.
This dropped as hard as Dragon Age: Origins back in 2009 and The Witcher 3 did back in 2015.
These days probably only Larian, Owlcat and Obsidian can drop a true banger. A game with soul, deep non-contrived narrative, player choice, fleshed out world, detailed and meaningful character creation. -
Aug 14, 2023Best RPG I have played in a really long time. Both Single-Player and Co-Op are great fun. There is absolutely no downside to playing either or the other way.
-
Aug 6, 2023a true masterpiece , finally a game who has not pay to win option to suck gamers money, i salute to developers and all their hard work i bought it in pc will buy it in ps5 to support these type of developers, great job
-
Aug 15, 2023Phenomenal detail on the world you explore , almost everything interactible in ways you don't even imagine and amazing story. Just buy it and play , you will be doing yourself a favor.

-
Aug 16, 2023Best game in a decade.
Thanks larian.
Enjoy this GOTY, take your time playing this perfect game -
Aug 14, 2023I absolute love the game. So many things to do. The closest thing to dnd in a video game.
-
Aug 21, 2023A very amazing RPG experience which rewards players, who want to see every single corner of the game. Sadly, there are some game elements I don't like, like not being able to access the inventory of your companions which aren't in your party currently, which forced you to switch the companions, just to access certain items, but overall a very great game.
-
Aug 15, 2023Great game
i don't like the camera angles at points.
Combat is good and inventive.
Story is so far interesting
Graphics ok but not amazing
Never played dungeons and dragons but it does have a table top aesthetic. You appear to have a lot of latitude in the way you do things. -
Aug 14, 2023Just a few hours into this game…. Never expected to like a turn based rpg but damn this is a nice game!
Sometimes a bit challenging but thats what u want! Also a nice full game with so far no bugs… well done (shame u need to give thid as a positive thing these days…) -

Aug 6, 2023Amazing Game! Game of the year contender. Give this game a shot. Some bugs, complicated UI, it is still worth every penny.
-
Sep 6, 2023This game far exceeded my expectations. The role playing is great, voice acting is great, the characters are actually interesting, you can talk to animals, like all of the animals. This is easily the closest that a video game has ever gotten to feel like playing an in-person campaign of DnD.
-
Sep 6, 2023I can say confidently that this is one of, if not the greatest rpg I have ever played.
-
Aug 15, 2023

Aug 14, 2023This game is a MASTERPIECE!
Seriously, everything there is amazing and epic.
The feeling of Freedom that this game brings is surreal, and very rare to see in nowadays games. -

-
Aug 5, 2023The best RPG I have ever played in my life. There is so much heart and soul in this game.
Awards & Rankings

Mar 25, 2024With a vast world to explore with varied stories and secrets to discover, Baldur's Gate 3 definitely shines. The cast is largely appealing and voice acting is top notch all-around, even if the storytelling and line delivery is varied in its pace. Character progression is somewhat weak in the opening levels but has a strong foundation for a great buildcraft experience, even if it lacks some on the fly experimentation seen in Larian's past efforts. Despite some performance woes in the later parts of the game and controller hangups, this is a journey worth taking for fans of Dungeons & Dragons or those new to the role playing field.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 22, 2024Larian Studios, the creators of the latest installment, have gone to great lengths to make sure they didn't disgrace any of the franchise's building blocks. The love and care is evident in Baldur's Gate 3, though needless to pretend, there aren't a few bricks crumbling here and there in this monument. It's far from a perfect title, but on the whole Baldur's Gate 3 is a brilliant computer RPG that is undoubtedly not to be overlooked. [Issue#329]

Dec 7, 2023Baldur’s Gate III is a title that many would not have thought possible just a few years ago. The game serves to further Larian Studios’s already strong reputation, and the studio deserves massive credit for refusing to panic, taking its time to get things right, and continuing to offer improvements even after launch at an impressive rate. Hopefully, it is able to reap the richly deserved rewards for doing so.
