Baldur's Gate 3's upcoming Patch 7 introduces a chilling new evil ending, offering a terrifying glimpse into the consequences of a fully malevolent playthrough.
Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7: A New Reign of Terror
An Ending Bhaal Would Approve Of
Larian Studios recently unveiled a 52-second cinematic teaser on X (formerly Twitter), showcasing a new evil ending for Patch 7. The Dark Urge takes center stage, highlighting the sinister ramifications of embracing pure evil.
SPOILER ALERT!
The preview depicts the grim fate of the Dark Urge's companions as they witness their leader succumb to their father's influence, seizing control of the Netherbrain. This harrowing scene foreshadows Bhaal's reign of terror, with the companions serving as the first tragic victims.
The Dark Urge's mind control forces their companions to their deaths, accompanied by a chilling narration: "Time for the final act. Your tragedy has become mankind's." The Dark Urge ultimately meets a similar fate.
This is just one of several new evil endings slated for Patch 7. Larian's April community update promised enhanced evil endings for even darker playthrough conclusions. The best part? These endings aren't exclusive to Dark Urge characters.
Previously teased endings included the Dark Urge wading through a sea of blood and corpses, and a town succumbing to "sheer mindless bliss" under the True Absolute's control.
