Patch 7 Reveals BG3's Dark Urge Ending

Baldur's Gate 3's upcoming Patch 7 introduces terrifying new evil endings, offering players a chilling glimpse into the darkest consequences of their choices.

A New Evil Ending: A Father's Legacy

Larian Studios recently unveiled a 52-second cinematic teaser on X (formerly Twitter), showcasing a new evil ending focused on the Dark Urge. This preview depicts the horrifying fate of the Dark Urge's companions as they fall victim to their leader's descent into absolute evil, controlled by Bhaal.

Spoiler Alert!

The Dark Urge, succumbing to their father's influence, takes control of the Netherbrain and forces their companions to their deaths. A chilling voiceover declares, "Time for the final act. Your tragedy has become mankind's," before the Dark Urge meets a similar fate. This is just one of several new evil endings promised for Patch 7.

Larian previously hinted at other dark endings, including one featuring the Dark Urge amidst a sea of blood and corpses, and another where a town is consumed by "sheer mindless bliss" under the influence of the True Absolute. These endings aren't exclusive to Dark Urge playthroughs.

What Else Awaits in Patch 7?

Patch 7 is a massive update, including:

• New evil endings (as detailed above).
• Dynamic split-screen for co-op gameplay.
• Enhanced Honour Mode challenges.
• A highly anticipated modding toolkit.

This isn't the end of the road for Baldur's Gate 3. Larian plans to continue enhancing the game with future updates, including crossplay and photo mode.
