Stardew Valley is incredibly successful due to the marvelous cozy vibes and nigh-limitless replayability options it offers. But players have found it’s lacking something: the companions of Baldur’s Gate 3.
Not to worry, though, as Stardew Valley modder Xun and their team are working on bringing a map and various characters from Baldur’s Gate 3 to Stardew Valley.
What parts of Baldur’s Gate 3 are coming to Stardew Valley in Baldur’s Village?
Via Twitter, Xun mentions that their mod, Baldur’s Village, will introduce a new map and four Baldur’s Gate 3 cast members. You’ll get to interact with fan-favorites Shadowheart, Halsin, Gale, and, naturally, Astarion.
The mod team says that only Astarion gets to be dateable right now, but Xun assures that Astarion will feature a unique romance plot and that more characters could join the dating roster in the future if things go well.
The mod still isn’t out, but Xun’s team has already completed the artwork for the map of Baldur’s Village, four different styles of buildings, and the designs of Astarion, Shadowheart, and Gale. Below you can check out Astarion in one of many pieces of artwork teased by Xun:
Xun closes by thanking Himetarts and Wildflour for the creation of some free assets used in Baldur’s Village. You can check out their mods here.
The team hopes to release the first part of Baldur’s Village before the first anniversary of Baldur’s Gate 3. While you wait, you can enjoy Stardey Valley on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. Baldur’s Gate 3 is available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
