Check out how we test and review games hereWith Baldurs Gate 3 developer Larian Studios preparing to leave the game behind as they turn full attention to their next project, its up to modders to keep the already-amazing RPG alive.As cracked mod tools open the door for custom maps, campaigns, dialogue and even fully voiced companions, some modders are going above and beyond. One mod brings players back to the streets of BG2s main city while another aims to combine Larians RPG with World of Warcraft. Both of these are far from release.However, one mod releasing sometime in February offers something truly unique, giving players a Bard-themed adventure that feels like a mini-DLC for Baldurs Gate 3. Dubbed Sell Your Lute to the Devil, this new mod offers a brand-new experience unlike anything players will see in the base game.New Baldurs Gate 3 campaign offers Bard-themed horrorCreated by modder Moezilla, the new Custom Campaign allows players to find a cursed lute that teleports them to The Grand Theatre, a musical celebration that hides a sinister secret.In the mod, players will uncover a dark plot that sees crowds of ever-lovable bards performing against their will. With the Red Wizards of Thay involved, players will find themselves fighting to save the musical class from despair.Sell your Lute to the Devil also features its own music with The Grand Theatre revolving around a new song titled Song of the Silverhand. Shown off in a recent development update, this awesome prog-rock song is a certified banger and a great addition. (Every mod needs its own rock tune now.)The goal is to roll this out at the end of January, the modder explained. Its going to be very limited for now, but, like, it took me three months to build this as a one-person show.While the modder is getting close to release the first version of the mod, theres also plans to continue development. Additionally, if fans are interested, theres also space for volunteers to help with design, coding and other aspects of the mod if they want.Sell your Lute to the Devil isnt the most ambitious Baldurs Gate 3 mod in the works, but its another interesting piece of content from a truly dedicated fan. Were still at the beginning of the games modding scene and nearing an explosion, and its modders like this that are setting the stage for decades of amazing additions in the future.For more BG3 mod coverage, read about how fans are bringing Halos Master Chief to the game or eead about the arrival of functional Pokeballs to the land of Faerun.
