Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 continues to receive support via patches and hotfixes, but fans are wondering when it will receive a major DLC content expansion, as there\u2019s a ton of room to add new classes, races, and spells and increase the level cap. While new classes would be difficult to implement, playable races should be easier, as they don\u2019t have as much influence on how you play the game. The difficulty comes from modeling them correctly, especially more animalistic ones, as D&#038;D races tend to have fantastical appearances. The people who want to play an animal race in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 are currently restricted to the lizardlike Dragonborn. However, that\u2019s about to change, as a modder is working on bringing some feline fury to the Forgotten Realms. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Tabaxi mod is in the works A user on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit named cobalt_owl has shared their progress on a mod that will bring the Tabaxi to the game. The Tabaxi are catlike humanoids from D&#038;D 5e with a natural affinity for climbing and can move swiftly and strike enemies with their claws. The mod is currently set to launch in April, but a beta version is available on CobaltOwl\u2019s Patreon, with the male Tabaxi model currently available for testing. While the Tabaxi currently only has fall resistance as a passive buff, the model looks amazing, as discussed in the Reddit post. \u201cFinally! Now I can live out my dream of making a Tabaxi monk that just pushes his foes off of high places,\u201d one user wrote, while another said, \u201cThis looks awesome! I played a Tabaxi in a one-shot D&#038;D session once, it was a lot of fun. I\u2019ll definitely download it once you release it.\u201d \u201cI commend you sir. You dared to make a race mod that wasn\u2019t another Aasimar, Cambion, or Elf clone. You have my deepest respect and gratitude,\u201d one user said, while another suggested, \u201cAll the dialog options must have cat puns.\u201d There are many Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 mods that add races, but few go to this level of detail when it comes to creating something wholly new. Many of the race mods use the existing races as a base, but the Tabaxi had to introduce all kinds of new aesthetic elements to get the cat style down. Hopefully, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 will add more classes and races in a future update, but it\u2019s unclear if that\u2019s the direction Larian wants to go. Any future update could simply be a new story expansion that ups the level cap. As such, it could be up to fans to bring the likes of the Tabaxi into the game, but modders like CobaltOwl have proven that they\u2019re more than up to the task.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 mod will add fan-favorite D&#038;D race and it looks amazing Wizards of the Coast\/Jeff EasleyA Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 modder is close to bringing a fan-favorite animal race from Dungeons &#038; Dragons 5e to the game, and the current 3D models look incredible.
