Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/a>: Act Two Expansion\u2019 expands the base game\u2019s second act, but it does so with a new region and new quests.<\/p>\nThat region is called The Chionthar Wilds – and it\u2019s also home to new dungeons, new NPCs, specially-made cutscenes, new items, and more.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the Army of the Absolute on the march, Tav and the gang must find a way to cross the Chionthar River and reach Rivington,\u201d reads a synopsis.<\/p>\n

The mod expansion features its own lore, custom creatures, and over 30 new combat encounters too, so it\u2019s going to keep you busy for a good long while.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Act Two Expansion adds a new region to the game that takes place after the events of the Shadow-Cursed Lands,\u201d writes creator SquallyDaBeanz.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe main goal of the project is to give players a whole new region to experience that is similar in scope to the Act One Wilderness. This mod focuses mainly on exploration and combat designed for mid-to-high level (8-10) parties.\u201d<\/p>\n
You can drop directly into the mod, or insert it into a full Baldur’s Gate 3 playthrough<\/p>\n
The expansion comes as two different versions; there\u2019s the main download and Quick Start.<\/p>\n
The main download version will naturally integrate the mod\u2019s content between acts two and three of the base game.<\/p>\n
To access the new region within your playthrough, you have a couple of options.<\/p>\n
The bridge out of Reithwin by the \u2018Road to Baldur\u2019s Gate\u2019 waypoint will now take you into the mod; this is the best and intended method. Act Three will then trigger after completing the mod.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, you can use the spell scroll found in the Tutorial Chest to unlock the Absolute War Camp waypoint, or use the following console command:<\/p>\n
TeleportPartiesToLevelWithMovie(“CHI_Main_A”,””,””)<\/p>\n
The Quick Start version, however, will place you into the game immediately at the point in which the mod expansion begins, skipping over Act One and the Shadow-Cursed Lands.<\/p>\n

Again, this project is still in beta so you should expect it to continue to improve over the coming weeks. It is fully playable from start to finish though.<\/p>\n

Baldur\u2019s Gate 3: Act Two Expansion, SquallyDaBeanz via NexusMods<\/p>\n
It\u2019s perhaps important to mention that the mod supports both single and multiplayer. If you want to enjoy the latter, just make sure that everybody in your party has the mod installed.<\/p>\n
In the build-up to the mod\u2019s 1.0 version, SquallyDaBeanz hopes to improve the writing and dialogue, finish certain cutscenes, add additional character, class, and race dialogue options, expand in-game text and notes, balance combat, rework boss mechanics, and more.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is beyond beautiful: the design, the scenery, the lighting are all mind-bogglingly beautiful,\u201d said one player.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis entire thing is AMAZING! I am blown away!\u201d added another.<\/p>\n
One comment read, \u201cI just finished playing through the whole thing and I loved it!! I’m so impressed at what you managed to pull off here. The map reminded me of Dragon Age Origins with that colour palette and the countryside places and it also felt like a nice little comeback to the vibes of Act One. \u201c<\/p>\n
It goes without saying that the mod is available on PC only, so console users will have to make do with the excellent base game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Larian Studios has moved on from Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, shifting its focus to its upcoming reboot of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":622809,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[125841,85,46,25592,16215,125],"class_list":["post-622808","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-baldurs-gate-3","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-mods","tag-pc","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/622808","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=622808"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/622808\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/622809"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=622808"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=622808"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=622808"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
