Baldur’s Gate 3 modders remaking the original Baldur’s Gate show off a revamped Candlekeep as a taste of how their work’s evolving

A dedicated group of Baldur’s Gate 3 modders has announced significant progress on their ambitious project to remake the original Baldur’s Gate as a custom campaign. The team, known as Deathbringer’s Reign, showcased a revamped version of Candlekeep, the iconic library-fortress that featured prominently in the original game’s opening sequences.

The revamped Candlekeep represents a major milestone for the modding project, demonstrating how the team’s work has evolved since their initial demo was released last year. The updated location serves as a showcase of the visual and design improvements the team has made using Baldur’s Gate 3’s engine and tools.

To continue their work on this passion project, Deathbringer’s Reign is actively recruiting skilled artists, specifically seeking both 3D and 2D artists to help bring their vision of the classic game to life. This fan-led initiative reflects the ongoing enthusiasm within the modding community for revisiting beloved classic games through modern engines and tools.
