As you might have noticed above, one of the highlights of the trailer (besides the release date) comes in the form of J.K. Simmons as Baldur'[s Gate 3's antagonist: General Ketheric Thorm. The PlayStation Blog about the latest trailer (written by Larian Studios Creative Director Swen Vincke) talked about the decision behind casting this character for the role he serves at the game:
