The first gameplay images from Baldur's Gate 3 have appeared


The official launch of Baldur's Gate 3 gameplay is scheduled for 9:30 pm tonight, but the first images from the game have leaked ahead of time thanks to a French page. The image is said to speak a thousand words, which is not entirely true in this case, but it is not far from it.

For starters, we can see how Baldur's Gate 3 will take a different approach to presenting character dialogues. It will no longer be a static model like Divinity: Original Sin, but the camera here will focus on Witcher and Dragon Age characters. The characters themselves will therefore be modeled in detail and feature facial animations like the ones in Divinity.

As for the gameplay itself in the context of combat, it will be performed very similarly to Divinity, with almost identical layout of elements in the interface - folders in the upper right corner, portraits of characters in the lower left, events log in the lower right, etc. They are even and icons for skills and objects very similar to those of Divinity.

Of course, this is just a preview of an early version of the game, which means that the interface could change over time. As things stand, the game should go through an early access phase where it is the player's reactions that will determine what works and what needs to be changed.
