Baldur’s Gate 3 Available at a 20% Discount on Steam Today

Baldur’s Gate 3 is finally on sale, and it’s not a minor token discount either. The Steam Store has knocked 20% off the full price, bringing it down from $59.99 / £49.99 to $47.99 / £39.99 until April 21st. If you’ve been waiting for any excuse to dive into Larian’s massive, sprawling RPG, this is it.

BG3 is one of the most celebrated releases in years, and for once, all the hype was entirely justified. This is a game that rewards every little choice and punishes carelessness in ways that somehow still feel fair. It’s dense, reactive, beautifully written, and genuinely funny in the ways that matter.

For me, this discount finally tips the scales. BG3 has rarely gone on sale, and when it has, it’s been brief. Now you’ve got a real window to get in without paying full price, and you don’t have to wait for some future GOTY edition. It’s all here now. You’re getting over 100 hours of story-rich gameplay, meaningful co-op, deeply customizable characters, and tactical combat that doesn’t hold your hand. It’s the closest thing we’ve had to a modern-day tabletop experience without needing to wrangle a group of flaky friends and four hours of free time.

But maybe you’re the kind of player who likes to start at the beginning. In that case, the Fanatical sale has you covered. Both Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition and Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition are sitting at $17.88 each, down from their usual $19.99 price tag. It’s not the biggest discount in the world, but they’ve been polished up for modern systems and still hold up shockingly well for games that first landed decades ago. The UI updates, quality-of-life improvements, and integrated expansions make them more playable than ever.

If you’re going all in, there are some solid DLC discounts too. Siege of Dragonspear, the bridge between BG1 and BG2, is currently 27% off at $14.69. The original soundtracks for all three Enhanced Editions are also discounted, with the Dragonspear OST seeing the biggest drop to $7.34. There’s even the tiny but well-regarded Faces of Good and Evil portrait pack, just $1.79 right now. None of this is essential, but if you’re building a collection or just enjoy having the extras, it’s a nice opportunity to round things out without spending much.

The short version? Now is a great time to catch up on the full Baldur’s Gate saga. You can grab the classics for a steal on Fanatical, then jump into Baldur’s Gate III with 20% off on Steam while it’s still live. It’s the perfect storm of nostalgia and modern brilliance, all at prices that don’t feel like a trap.
