The modding tool was only unlocked a week ago on September 9 so this is still a very early version of what&#8217;s possible, but it&#8217;s a sign of bigger and better things to come when modders inevitably spend months and years creating custom content.<\/p>\n<p>A YouTube video of the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/_LOF3d7aLZ0?feature=shared\">castle<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/wKBkko6KJhA?feature=shared\">Avernus map<\/a> were shared too, showing Baldur&#8217;s Gate 3 characters Wyll and Astarion walking around in them as normally as they would the official game. Screenshots in the Reddit posts show the maps too, and while both are still quite basic, katszenBurger has plans to expand their creations.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had a lava area planned too, and maybe I could make the lake explorable a bit,&#8221; they said on the Avernus map. &#8220;Dialogue is a work in progress in the editor, as are some of the environmental elements.&#8221; But characters can walk around, pick up items, fight enemies, and so on. katszenBurger also said map making is &#8220;very simple,&#8221; meaning others will have easy access to create maps of their own.<\/p>\n<div class=\"reddit-embed-wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/BG3mods\/comments\/1fhs2bq\/another_custom_map_using_the_unlocked_toolkit\/\">Another custom map using the Unlocked Toolkit, this time &#8220;Avernus&#8221;<\/a><br \/> by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/katszenBurger\/\">u\/katszenBurger<\/a> in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/BG3mods\/\">BG3mods<\/a><\/div>\n<p>While console players can enjoy the wealth of mods being made purely through the official Baldur&#8217;s Gate 3 Toolkit, maps like these will remain out of reach unless Larian decides to fully unlock it itself.
