Rare Game Over Experience in Baldur's Gate 3 Requires a Perfect Roll

Baldur's Gate 3 features a unique game over scenario that players can only trigger by achieving a perfect roll on Constitution saving throws and then making an unwise decision.

In Baldur’s Gate 3, players can encounter many unique game over scenarios, but one stands out.

It occurs only under very specific circumstances. For instance, a player might face a situation where they have to make a Constitution saving throw with a difficulty rating of 99, requiring a roll of 20 to succeed. If the player fails this test repeatedly, it leads to a game over. The scenario is detailed in a video by YouTuber SlimX, who explores hidden secrets in the game.

Upon reaching Baldur’s Gate, players are met with a portcullis blocking their path to the upper city. If they attempt to approach, the game teleports them back—a stunning effect they can’t avoid. To access the city, players must prepare by collecting Netherstones before a confrontation with the Elder Brain.

To encourage proper gameplay, the game features dialogue prompting players to gather items before approaching the Elder Brain. Ignoring this advice results in the Elder Brain taking control, leading to instant failure.

This unique game over highlights Larian Studios’ commitment to crafting intricate gaming experiences, rewarding those who embrace the challenge.
