Welcome to our Baldur's Gate Review. Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition is the reissue of the 1998 original game that with which it all began for this timeless medieval fantasy franchise.


As part of our Road to Baldur's Gate III series, I took on the challenge to play and review this Dungeons & Dragons classic RPG.


This is a computer RPG review, it's not meant to comment on the D&D ruleset or on how well Baldur's Gate implemented it in its mechanics. This review is for a non RPG specialized gamer who's maybe hyped about Baldur's Gate III because of the trailers and footage of BG3 he or she has seen and who has maybe played Larian Studio's Divinity Original Sin II.


There are many games you could play in preparation for Baldur's Gate III: Baldur's Gate, Baldur's Gate Siege of Dragonspear, Baldur's Gate II Shadows of Amn, Icewind Dale, Icewind Dale Heart of Winter, Icewind Dare II, Neverwinter Nights 2, NWN 2 Mask of the Betrayer, NWN Storm of Zehir. If you only have time for one or two of these... should Baldur's Gate be one of them?
Hopefully our review will help you decide.
