Now that Baldur’s Gate 3 has been out on PC and PS5 for a little while, game developer Larian Studios has dropped a scintillating peek behind the curtain with the game’s very own Art Blast on ArtStation Magazine—giving us a ton news of fascinating looks at concept art, model renders, and more from the game’s take on the classic Dungeons & Dragons aesthetic.
While of course D&D itself has given us plenty of art to flesh out the worlds of Faerun and beyond , getting to see how Larian’s team of concept artists and modelers translated that world—from sweeping vistas to its darkest creatures, to new heroes and familiar foes—into a cohesive aesthetic for Baldur’s Gate 3 is fascinating. There’s loads of great stuff here, from high-res character renders to gear and environmental concepts, to lighting tests and scenic location concepts. It’s a wild level of insight into what goes into making a game not only as vast as Baldur’s Gate 3 is , but how to build Dungeons & Dragons’ traditional fantasy aesthetic into something altogether unique while still feeling like the TTRPG people know and love .
Click through to see some highlights, but find tons, tons more art—including some very spoilery elements if you’re not done with the massive CRPG just yet— over on ArtStation .
