Before reaching the narrative ending of Baldur's Gate 3, players can possibly encounter a Game Over screen as the result of a conversation option or failed condition during a combat encounter. Reaching a Game Over will not offer scenes or conversations that conclude the overall story of the campaign, but will instead cause a screen to appear that prompts the player to reload from a prior save.

Narrative endings that conclude the story through the final quest, Confront the Elder Brain, can be found in Endings.

List of Game Over screens

Note: Some game-over triggers may not fire during co-op gameplay. Keep in mind that this information is not always accessible for a single contributor to confirm.

Ceremorphosis

Fail to prevent your own ceremorphosis, or do something that causes you to lose what protection you had against it. There is more than one opportunity for this to happen.

Gale

When Gale of Waterdeep is recruited as a Companion or played as an Origin, a large number of unique triggers for Game Over screens become available surrounding the explosion of his Netherese Orb.

  • Fail to prevent the Orb from exploding after becoming aware of its existence.
