It’s all there to let you style your party characters to be as cool, adorable, or intimidating as you fancy.
Moreover, each class in Baldur’s Gate 3 is getting an exciting new subclass as you level up, offering fresh ways to strategize. For example, Bards choosing the College of Glamour will find new ways to heal their team and charm foes.
