Baldur's Gate 3 News

Baldur's Gate 3 is a must-play, and it just hit its cheapest price ever

Baldur's Gate 3 is brilliant. Even if you're not a fan of fantasy, you can't deny the sheer quality of this turn-based RPG. From its unsettling tadpole-behind-the-eye scenario to its carefully-crafted cast of characters to the sheer freedom it offers, it's an absolute treat.
