Gamers use BG3 as shorthand for the video game Baldur's Gate 3. In this RPG, players adventure through the Forgotten Realms, a popular Dungeons & Dragons (DnD) setting.
Publisher Larian Studios released BG3 in August 2023, to much acclaim and fanfare. Players and critics alike praised BG3's narrative, worldbuilding, and intense attention to detail. Some, however, did not like BG3's strict adherence to the rules and combat system of DnD 5e.
