Baldur’s Gate 3’s second act should get a playable new region this year, assuming this custom campaign mod doesn’t hit any more roadblocks
A custom campaign mod aiming to substantially expand Baldur’s Gate 3’s second act has shared fresh development progress. The ambitious fan-made expansion was originally planned for a 2025 release but has been delayed into 2026. The mod’s creator is now targeting completion by the end of 2026, though they’ve acknowledged that a first-half launch is unlikely due to scope adjustments made during development.
Despite the revised timeline, development momentum remains positive. The mod creator reported that work is “progressing very nicely” and released a new trailer showcasing recent progress. The project represents part of the broader modding community’s substantial efforts to enhance and expand Baldur’s Gate 3 with significant new content. Numerous other ambitious custom campaigns are currently in development, reflecting the game’s strong appeal to creative mod makers and dedicated community developers seeking to add meaningful expansions to Larian Studios’ acclaimed fantasy RPG. These community-driven expansion efforts demonstrate the enduring interest in extending the game’s content well beyond its original release.
