Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7: A Glimpse into Terrifying New Evil Endings
Larian Studios has unveiled a chilling preview of a new, malevolent ending arriving in Baldur's Gate 3's upcoming Patch 7. A recently released 52-second cinematic trailer on X (formerly Twitter) showcases the Dark Urge's descent into utter depravity.
A Dark Urge Descent: Spoilers Ahead!
The trailer depicts a horrifying scene: the Dark Urge's companions witnessing their leader's complete submission to Bhaal's will, culminating in the seizure of the Netherbrain. The Dark Urge's terrifying reign begins with the brutal demise of their allies, forced to their deaths through mind control. A chilling narration accompanies the grim spectacle, foreshadowing a catastrophic end: "Time for the final act. Your tragedy has become mankind's."
This is just one of several wicked endings promised for Patch 7. Larian Studios previously announced enhanced evil storylines for players seeking darker conclusions, even those not playing as the Dark Urge. Previous teases included the Dark Urge wading through a sea of blood and corpses, and a town succumbing to absolute, mindless bliss under the influence of the True Absolute.
What Else Awaits in Patch 7?
Patch 7 is a substantial update, boasting a wealth of new features and improvements. In addition to the sinister new endings, players can anticipate a dynamic split-screen mode for cooperative play, enhanced challenges in Honour Mode, and a highly anticipated modding toolkit, empowering players to create their own content.
Larian Studios has confirmed Baldur's Gate 3's journey is far from over. Future updates will include crossplay functionality and a photo mode, reflecting the developer's commitment to community feedback and continuous improvement.
Currently in closed beta, Patch 7 is slated for release this September. Players can register on the Steam store page for a chance to experience the new content early. Larian Studios' dedication to refining Baldur's Gate 3 into a definitive role-playing experience is evident, solidifying its status as a genre masterpiece.
