Baldur's Gate 3 custom campaign mod channels World of Warcraft with an adventure about undead former slaves fighting to reclaim a kingdom
The opening act of a Baldur's Gate 3 custom campaign mod which injects an adventure set in the World of Warcraft universe into Larian's RPG has been released. The mod, Forsaken, is another ambitious bit of work from a modder who recently expanded the second act of BG3's main story with a new region to explore before you head into the final chapter.

A new Baldur's Gate 3 custom campaign mod, titled Forsaken, has been released to the gaming community. This ambitious mod channels the world of World of Warcraft into the RPG realm, creating an adventure where undead former slaves rise up to reclaim the kingdom of Lordaeron. Developed by modder SquallyDaBeanz, Forsaken is available on Nexus Mods and is currently set to feature levels 1-5 of gameplay.
Players take on the role of one of the Forsaken - an Undead who has recently awakened from servitude to the Lich King. The goal is to find one's place in this new world alongside other freed Undead and fight against dark rituals, fearsome beasts, zealots, and discover magical items. The mod is based on the Tirisfal Glades region from World of Warcraft's classic and vanilla versions, with the modder deliberately making it distinct from the Baldur's Gate universe.
Currently, the mod only includes the first act, with more than 20 quests awaiting exploration across a map designed to evoke the expansive nature of World of Warcraft. Players can assemble a party of up to three companions - a fighter named Darnell, a mage called Isabella, and a cleric named Duesten - in a charming place called Deathknell Chapel.
Although the mod is heavily focused on combat and linear gameplay, the developer has promised future updates to include more quests, class dialogue, skill checks, items, lore books, idle animations, and cutscenes for NPCs. To install Forsaken, players need to download the main file and follow the instructions provided in the mod's description. Once installed, players can start a new game and be transported to the WOWville setting.
