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 particularly grim 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, surviving unscathed. A subsequent choice presents itself: depart with companions, or leave them behind.

Speculation abounds that this previously hidden ending will be fully integrated with the release of patch eight.

Recent layoffs at BioWare, the studio behind Dragon Age: The Veilguard, have fueled industry-wide conversations about the current climate. In contrast, Larian Studios' publishing director, Michael Daus, remains active on social media, weighing in on these layoffs. He emphasizes the importance of valuing employees and advocates for leadership to shoulder the burden of restructuring rather than resorting to widespread job cuts between or after projects. He stresses the critical role of retaining institutional knowledge for future endeavors.
