## What is Baldur's Gate?

This game is optimized for tablets and not recommended for phones with screen sizes under 7 inches.

Your journey begins as all great cRPG tales once did: quietly, within the walls of home, before fate tears everything open.
Forced from the safety of Candlekeep under mysterious circumstances, you’re thrust into a conflict that threatens to ignite the Sword Coast. Your world has always been limited to the fortress library’s ancient halls, where your foster father, Gorion, worked tirelessly to shield you from dangers you never understood.
All of that is about to change, setting you on the path that made Baldur’s Gate a legend.

Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition brings you back to the golden age of 90s cRPGs, steeped in the world of Dungeons & Dragons. Customize your hero, gather a band of memorable companions, and roam the Sword Coast in search of adventure, fortune, and long‑buried truths.

Enjoy over 75 hours of classic Baldur’s Gate gameplay, including the full original campaign, the beloved Tales of the Sword Coast expansion, and a new arena mode for those who crave a challenge.
Classic Campaign: The original Baldur’s Gate adventure, faithfully preserved
Expansion: Tales of the Sword Coast, the iconic 90s add‑on
Classic‑Style Challenges: The Black Pits, a new arena of tactical battles
Refined Difficulty Options: Story Mode for relaxed exploration; Legacy of Bhaal for veterans seeking a brutal, old‑school test
Brothers Lost: Help Rasaad yn Bashir, the Sun Soul Monk, as he scours the Cloud Peaks in search of his lost brother.

The 1998 classic returns with thoughtful refinements that make it smoother to play today while keeping its soul untouched.

The following content is available for in-app purchase:

Neera and the Red Wizards: Save the wild mage Neera from the machinations of Thay’s dreaded Red Wizards.
Path of the Bloodied: Join the blackguard Dorn Il-Khan in taking revenge against those who betrayed him in Luskan.

### 5/5 — A dev team that cares.

*2026-07-02, version 2.7.3*

It can’t be that profitable to patch this game 13y later, but regardless the devs pushed through an impactful update last week. And as a long-term player, it’s exactly the change I wanted to see. You guys are amazing - thank you!

### 1/5 — Needs controller support

*2026-05-04, version 2.5.17*

Buttons too smol, pretty please.

### 1/5 — Horrible game play

*2026-04-25, version 2.5.17*

Controls are not clear.  The tutorial was frustrating enough to delete the game.

### 2/5 — Broken mechanics- not in a good way

*2026-02-07, version 2.5.17*

2nd half of story (Cloakwoods) wont open due to storyline logic breakdown. Unable to finish story. Unable to carry characters forward to next game. Last developer update 7 yrs ago.

### 4/5 — Экспорт сохранений с ПК

*2026-01-29*

Добрый день! Большое спасибо за возможность экспорта сохранений с iOS на ПК, а можно ли в обратном порядке? Если ли возможность перенести файл сохранения с ПК (игра куплена в Steam) на iPad?

**Developer response:** Добрый день! Теперь это возможно! https://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/90724/2-7-baldurs-gate-icewind-dale-ees-update-new-languages-improved-cloud-support-mobile-modding#latest

### 3/5 — Lots of glitches

*2026-01-19, version 2.5.17*

Great game but lots of player glitches with spells disabled for example. Removed all dress and reset, rested and rejoined and still all disabled. Sad for a game I loved on pc. iPad interface also doesn’t allow selection of a lot of in-game items. So much potential.

### 1/5 — Stuck in tutorial

*2025-11-27, version 2.5.17*

Would love to play the game in the tutorial and learn how to play it, but all of my characters are stuck in the tutorial and can’t make the move

### 2/5 — Tiny on phone

*2025-10-04, version 2.5.17*

The resolution is too small on a phone. On an iPad it is ok.

### 5/5 — Игра супер

*2025-09-26*

Но никак не пойму как перенести сохранение с компа в игру на ipad. Zip файлы не передаются в игру никак.
Все разобрался. Надо сделать zip архив с файлами из папки save, которая в документах компа из одного сохранения. Потом изменить расширение zip на .bg1save переслать на ipad и открыть с помощью игры. Квест еще тот))
Но за возможность импорта спасибо конечно.
Игра отличная.
