A Baldur's Gate 3 player online has shared a cool discovery about the game's companion portraits, indicating that they're not quite what they seem. Baldur's Gate 3 remains one of the most popular games around, and it seems that the game has plenty of secrets to discover yet.
The companions in Baldur's Gate 3 are an essential part of the overall experience. Each one has their own distinct personality, allowing for different interactions depending on how players treat them. Players who wrong them enough may find themselves losing the companion for good, and it makes for a great balancing act of actions over the course of the game. It's hard to remember the last time a game's companions exploded in popularity like those in Baldur's Gate 3, with every player having their own favorites. The debate will always rage on about the best companion in Baldur's Gate 3, and it's a testament to Larian's writing that there's a great argument for each one of them.
Redditor grey_anonym shared the cool discovery, which shows off the full poses that all the companions are making for their UI portraits. According to the user, they aren't just an image — rather, an out-of-bounds area that renders the models with the Baldur's Gate 3 armor that players place on them. This updates with each level, although apparently, it doesn't seem to render any dye changes, Wyll's horns, or Shadowheart's white hair. Gamers in the thread had plenty of thoughts about all the poses, with one player imagining a hilarious scenario where «it's picture day in camp and Withers is behind the camera.»
While the original poster never shared how players can access this area, another player in the thread came to the rescue. While using the magic mirror or leveling up in Baldur's Gate 3, players using any sort of free-cam tools are able to move behind the mountains on the right. There, the companion UI portraits can be found, complete with their fun in-game poses.
