A new evil ending has been revealed in Baldur's Gate

Baldur's Gate 3's hidden depths continue to unveil themselves. Larian Studios' RPG is brimming with secrets, many unearthed by dedicated dataminers.

One such discovery, a previously-found sinister ending, has resurfaced during testing of the game's eighth major patch. This ending allows the player character to forcibly remove and destroy the illithid parasite, unharmed. A subsequent choice presents itself: depart with companions, or leave them behind.

The community anticipates this hidden ending's full integration with the release of patch eight.

Recent layoffs at BioWare, the studio behind Dragon Age: The Veilguard, have ignited conversations about the gaming industry's current climate. In contrast, Larian Studios' publishing director, Michael Daus, remains active on social media. He recently commented on these industry-wide job cuts, emphasizing the importance of valuing employees and advocating for leadership to shoulder the burden of restructuring instead of frontline developers. He stressed the vital role of retaining institutional knowledge for future projects.
