Recently released, patch #4 of “Baldur’s Gate 3” brought exciting signs that players can face an even more intense challenge in Larian Studios’ acclaimed RPG.
A new achievement present in the GOG version of the game suggests the arrival of a difficulty mode that would be officially called “Honour Mode”.
Discover the new modality
Enthusiasts of Larian Studios are already familiar with the term “Honour Mode” thanks to its presence in Divinity: Original Sin 2.
In this mode, the enemies become considerably more formidable, the penalties become more severe, and one of the most notable changes is the absence of the possibility to save the game and try again after a defeat.

If “Baldur’s Gate 3” follows in its predecessor’s footsteps, Honor Mode could impose limitations on players, restricting them to a single save point.
Furthermore, the game file would be automatically deleted if the player’s group was defeated, which would mean that it would be necessary to restart the adventure from the beginning.
Since its release in August this year, “Baldur’s Gate 3” has received numerous improvements and updates from Larian Studios.
Players have already been able to enjoy new features, including the ability to customize the appearance of main characters and recruited NPCs, quality of life improvements, and a number of bug fixes.
The development team has strived to improve the game’s overall performance, but it still faces challenges, especially in Act 3 of the adventure, where occasional drops in performance may occur.
However, Larian Studios’ dedication to perfecting the gaming experience is evident.
In addition to ongoing improvements, Larian Studios also plans to release “Baldur’s Gate 3” on Xbox Series X|Salthough the exact date has not yet been defined.
The company aims to complete this task before the end of 2023, promising an exciting experience for console gamers.
Fans of “Baldur’s Gate 3” can look forward to more intense challenges with Honor Mode and eagerly await future updates and the release on Xbox Series X|S.
The world of “Baldur’s Gate” continues to evolve, offering unforgettable adventures at every turn.
