Baldur's Gate 3 Mod Downloads Pass 500 Million as Larian Releases Three-Year Stats

Larian Studios released a set of statistics for Baldur's Gate 3's third anniversary on August 3. Mod downloads passed 500 million, with 13,000 uploads. The studio also detailed NPC death counts, Dark Urge kill rates, and final-boss weapon choices, including a record for a joke weapon used only four times.

Larian Studios published a new set of player statistics for Baldur's Gate 3 to mark the game's third anniversary. Mod downloads have grown by roughly 235 million since the second-anniversary report in August 2025, and uploads increased by 4,500 over the same period.

The studio also highlighted two community mods: one that makes every important character bald, and another that lets players transform into a car.

Among the story NPCs, Zevlor died the most at 12.31 million times, followed by Rolan at 8.62 million and Isobel at 7.2 million. Barcus Wroot's 2.66 million deaths include about 2.1 million caused by being blown off a windmill.

In the final battle against the Netherbrain, the legendary longbow Gontr Mael was the most-chosen weapon at 33.4 million uses. The legendary mace The Blood of Lathander was used 670,474,592 times in combat, while the joke weapon Poo-Scraper was used only four times in chapter three.
