It’s clearly the season of giving at Larian Studios. Just a few days ago, the studio added a range of new classes, among other things, to the console version of Baldur’s Gate 3, and now, it’s just added a bunch more exciting content.
Those logging into Baldur’s Gate 3 from today will have access to a whopping 23 new pieces of content, including the Zephyr class, a Corpse-Eater subclass, and the ability to take baby dragons (and Withers) along with you on your adventures.
Ever Wanted A Pet Dragon In Baldur’s Gate 3? Well, Now You Can!
Baldur’s Gate 3 is a game with endless possibilities, and it didn’t take long for creators to see that. Since its launch, players have added over 15,000 projects to Nexus Mods. These have been downloaded almost 375 million times. While it’d be impossible for Larian to port all of this content to Baldur’s Gate 3 on console, its dedicated team is combing through, bringing the best to Xbox and PlayStation.
Baldur’s Gate 3’s Nocturne Was Originally Pitched As A “Mephistophelian Demon” Before Becoming A Little More “Girl Next Door”
The character’s initial description sent actor Abigail Thorn “in a particular Mephistophelian direction.”
Below, you can find the details of everything in the latest content drop:
- Earrings of the Devout – Adds 15 “diety-themed” earrings, all in silver.

It’s a relative feast of content just after Thanksgiving, with plenty to dive into. The Corpse-Eater subclass seems a blast, and traveling with some of the pets available will be a lot of fun. This year, I’m grateful for Larian’s continued support of Baldur’s Gate 3.
