You can never have enough mods, especially those that radically change some aspects of the game. On that note, the latest Baldur’s Gate 3 mod adds ‘Night Mode’ to the game, plunging it into darkness, and it is compatible with Patch 8. So, if that is something that you find intriguing, keep reading.
When the famous Patch 8 dropped, it added a ton of stuff to the game, with the highlight being the 12 new Subclasses. While they shook up the scene, with players discussing which ones are the best and which ones are the worst, Patch 8 also shook up the modding scene, as now the mods have to be compatible with the new patch. Thankfully, modders are hardly intimidated by it, and new mods are getting released daily.
If you are into gloomy aesthetics or have played Baldur’s Gate 3 enough times that you’d like to see a change of scenery, then these new mods are perfect for you.
Mods That Change The Whole of Baldur’s Gate 3 Into Night Mode Are Here
While we can’t deny that the visuals in BG3 are top-notch, they can get stale after dozens of playthroughs. On that note, two pretty cool game-changing mods turn off the lights and change the whole game into nighttime.
Aptly named “Act 1 Night Mode Patch 8 Compatible” and “Act 3 Night Mode Patch 8 Compatible”, and created by -CH-, these two mods change the whole Acts to nighttime. Remember how cool it looked then, just before Act 3 properly began, you had that nighttime shot of the city of Baldur’s Gate? Now, your whole game can be like that.
While these mods don’t add any drastic changes to the game and the general mechanics (other than having darkness everywhere, which can impact Stealth, vision, ranged attacks, etc), it does change the “feel” of the game. Both of them can be found on mod.io, on these links: Act 1 and Act 3. The Second Act is already covered in darkness anyway, so naturally, there is no mod for it.
It is important to note that there is a third mod that is practically essential for these to work, and that it is “Just a better Torch” mod. The description states: “A better torch with better lighting, shadow, scattering and range mostly made for my Night Modes or can be used stand alone to improve the vanilla torch.”
And the fans are already excited, with comments like: “These look amazing, gonna try out the night mode today!” and “That night mod looks AMAZING”. So, if you are into nightly aesthetics, want to run a purely Darkvision party, or just want to have a huge moon lighting the night sky over Baldur’s Gate, be sure to check out these mods.
