SomeBaldur’s Gate 3players are taking the new epilogue as an indication that more story stuff for the RPG might be in the works.
Be warned: spoilers for the Baldur’s Gate 3 epilogue follow!
Yesterday, November 30, Larian pushed live Baldur’s Gate 3’s mammoth patch 5, the game’s biggest post-launch update so far, boasting a lovely epilogue in the form of a Withers-hosted party. It’s one line, in the screenshots just below, that have got a lot of players speculating thatBaldur’s Gate 3 DLCcould yet be on the way for the massive RPG.
Withers sure does warn the player, and the party by extension, to be ready for more adventures. If we’re taking Larian’s six years of work into account though, this could simply be our skeletal friend addressing the fact that our party’s adventures continue after the credits roll, and nowhere is there a better example of that than Karlach’s ending.
Yes, if you romanced Karlach, you’ll get a special little scene with her at the party. The best girl and your character plan on heading back to Faerun and getting her Infernal Engine looked at after Baldur’s Gate 3 story is all said and done, but this exploit doesn’t actually play out on screen - it’s simply setting up where life will take the couple after the RPG.
Withers' line in the epilogue could be a tease of DLC yet to come, sure, or it could simply by Larian looking to the future of Baldur’s Gate 3 after they cease work on it and hand it over to players for good.
