Baldur’s Gate 3
Baldur’s Gate 3 had its full launch this week. The CRPG has fully launched after spending a few years in early access. Celebrating version 1.0, Larian Studio has released new details on how mind flayer powers or Illithid Power work in the game. This hidden skill tree lets you use powers granted by a particular parasite. Search high and low inside jars and pools of brine. Larian hints you can even discover them in the skulls of the infected. Once you find them simply gobble them up as if they’re brain food, yum!
