Baldur’s Gate 3 Update: Character Appearance Customization Arriving in Patch 3

Magic Mirror Unlocks New Customization Options

Additionally, the Magic Mirror won’t work its magic on the appearance of Origins, the core party members you can select to play as at the beginning of the game, such as Astarion, Shadowheart, and Karlach. Larian offered a playful explanation, joking that “they’re all very particular about their hair,” which means you won’t be seeing a bald Gale anytime soon.

The introduction of the Magic Mirror fulfills a long-standing request from the Baldur’s Gate 3 community, following the game’s initial PC launch. While players have resorted to mods to tweak their characters’ appearances, the official character editor tool is finally arriving with patch 3.
