Baldur’s Gate 3 has an incredibly rich and deep story full of nuance, though you may be wondering how that connects to Dungeons and Dragons. Here’s whether Baldur’s Gate 3 is canon to DnD.
Does Baldur’s Gate 3 Take Place in DnD Lore?
Baldur’s Gate 3, like Baldur’s Gate 1 and 2 before it, does take place in established DnD lore. It’s a part of the Forgotten Realms setting and lore, and thus is subject to the status of its universe. That’s why specific events are written the way they are, thanks to the oversight from those at Wizards of the Coast. This also means that there’s one “canon” ending, but which ending that is isn’t entirely clear.
