Baldur's Gate 3 celebrates a colossal mod manager milestone with a raunchy reference to one of the game's silliest mods

Baldur's Gate 3.

Larian Studios' critically acclaimed D&D RPG Baldur's Gate 3 has had a vibrant and active modding scene since its launch day in August 2023, bit it really started taking off late last year. That's because Patch 7 — the most recent major update for the game that released in September — saw the addition of an official in-game mod manager on PC, with a console version of the feature then coming to Xbox and PS5 a few months later in November. Simple to use and complete with nifty options to search for specific add-ons, easily enable or disable individual mods, and sync mods with friends in multiplayer, the mod manager makes installing mods far, far easier than it was before.

The manager was so explosively popular that Larian reported it had been used to download over 1 million mods in the first 24 hours it was available, and since then, it's continued to be put to good use by the Baldur's Gate 3 community. In fact, on Tuesday morning, the developer announced that the RPG has hit a colossal new modding milestone: 100 million mod downloads. The news came in a post on social media that you can view below.
