BALDUR'S GATE 3
FAN CONTENT TERMS
Last updated: 31 July 2025
Greetings again adventurer,
LARIAN STUDIOS allows you to forge your own adventure through the creation of Fan Content such as creative works including, but not limited to, fan art, fanfiction, and cosplays (“Creative Work”), audiovisual content such as livestreams and videos (“Audiovisual Content”), and Larian supported modifications (including but not limited to new items, weapons, characters, models, textures, etc.) (“Mod” or “Mods”) for the video game Baldur’s Gate 3 (the “Game” or “BG3”) (collectively, “BG3 Fan Content”). However, before you can enter the realm of craftsmen, some additional terms must be agreed in order to protect LARIAN STUDIOS, the Game, third party licensors that have licensed intellectual property to LARIAN STUDIOS for the Game, as well as the people that create Fan Content. Those terms (“BG3 Fan Content Terms”) are laid out below. Please review these terms carefully before you create, share, distribute, use or otherwise exploit any BG3 Fan Content.
For clarity, these Fan Content Terms apply exclusively to Fan Content you create for the game Baldur’s Gate 3. The rules governing Fan Content for any other Larian Studios game are set out in our general Fan Content Policy and do not apply to BG3 Fan Content.
Please understand that, while we appreciate and encourage your dedication as fans of BG3, LARIAN STUDIOS is unable to grant you permissions that go beyond the scope of these Fan Content Terms. If you have any questions or the Fan Content you want to make isn’t covered by this Policy, we ask that you contact Wizards of the Coast directly via the Wizards Help System at https://support.wizards.com. They are best suited to help you realize whatever BG3 Fan Content you want to make that goes beyond the rules mentioned here! |
1. APPLICABLE TERMS
The BG3 Fan Content Terms refer to and wholly incorporate Wizards of the Coast LLC’s Fan Content Policy (the “Wizards FCP”). Any BG3 Fan Content you make must comply with the Wizards FCP, as well as the terms set out and referenced herein. For clarity, you may not receive any type of compensation for your BG3 Fan Content other than in the manner set out in the Wizards FCP.
2. LICENSE
By accepting these terms, you give Larian Studios, its partners and licensors, all necessary rights and clearances to use your Fan Content. This includes an irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, display, distribute, or otherwise exploit any Fan Content you share, distribute or make otherwise available to the public, including via upload to the Modding Library, in any way in connection with the Game or the promotion thereof. Additionally, to the extent permissible by applicable law, you agree to refrain from invoking any moral rights or similar rights you might have in your Fan Content, against how Larian Studios or its partners use your Fan Content.
3. USING THE BG3 MODDING TOOLKIT
Provided you follow the Game’s EULA, these BG3 Fan Content Terms and any other applicable terms, LARIAN STUDIOS hereby grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited, fully revocable right and license to install, access and use the in-game modding tools, any graphical assets and/or other related tools provided by LARIAN STUDIOS (the “Baldur’s Gate 3 Toolkit”). You can use the Baldur’s Gate 3 Toolkit solely for the purpose of creating Mods for the Game. Officially supported mods will be published via the in-game library (“Modding Library” or “Mod Manager”).
Please note that the Modding Library is made available and operated by a third party partner, mod.io, and subject to additional terms and conditions published via mod.io. You are required to accept and comply with these terms and conditions.
Using the Baldur’s Gate 3 Toolkit is at your own discretion and risk and you will be solely responsible for any obligations, damages or losses which arise from your registration, access and use of the Baldur’s Gate 3 Toolkit.
4. TERMINATION
A breach of the provisions of the BG3 EULA, these BG3 Fan Content Terms or any terms incorporated herein shall constitute a material breach which has the effect of terminating the EULA and the rights granted to you under these BG3 Fan Content Terms and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.
5. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold LARIAN STUDIOS and its affiliates, licensors, licensees, contractors, officers, directors, employees, agents harmless from any damages, losses, cost and expenses and other liabilities, including but not limited to legal fees and expenses, relating to any claim arising out of or related to your use of any of the modding services, your culpable breach of these BG3 Fan Content Terms and terms referenced therein, any applicable law or the rights of a third party. This indemnification extends to any claim that your Fan Content infringes the copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or other intellectual property or other rights of any third party, or any other violation of these terms.
You acknowledge and agree that to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (i) LARIAN STUDIOS will not be liable to you for any loss including any liability, cost, expense, including legal costs on a full indemnity basis, claim, proceeding, action, demand or damage (Loss) arising in connection with your use of the modding services including without limitation any lack of availability, defects, interruptions, lost data, loss of profits or limitation of the services whatsoever, (ii) LARIAN STUDIOS will not be liable to you or any third party under any circumstances for any indirect, incidental or consequential Loss or damages sustained or incurred whether such liability arises directly or indirectly as a result of the reliance on any content, goods or services available on or through any third party websites, games, applications, tools or services, supply, performance, payment or use of the services.
