Baldur’s Gate 3 Bloody Astarion Cosplay
ThroughoutBaldur’s Gate 3, players will encounter a colorful cast of characters. Larian did a great job ensuring every character felt unique, from the companions to the one-time encounter NPCs. As a result, a massive cosplay scene has developed fromBaldur’s Gate 3, with fans choosing to dress up as their favorite characters from Larian’s RPG. Just recently, there was aBaldur’s Gate 3player who showed off their Sister Lidwin cosplay, showing that it’s not always the main characters who get the cosplay treatment.
With Larian recently releasing the massive Patch 7 forBaldur’s Gate 3, it remains to be seen how much more content will come to the game. It has already been confirmed that Larian is moving on from the series as a whole, with Wizards of the Coast left with the daunting task of replacing the developer for the next mainline title. Even with Larian moving on, there’s still some good news for players. Earlier this year,Neil Newbon revealed he’d “love” to reprise hisBaldur’s Gaterole as Astarionin the future, so the character’s return is a distinct possibility if the next developer chooses to use him.
