If you’re playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and feel like it could do with some Final Fantasy races, there’s a mod for that.
Dungeons and Souls’ Fantastical Multiverse 1.0, which just launched in full release form, adds 54 fantastical races to Larian’s Dungeons & Dragons-themed role-playing game, including some from Final Fantasy 14.
Races added with the mod are lifted from lands outside the game setting of Faerûn, such as D&D’s Eberron, Etharis (the official world for the Grim Hollow setting), and Final Fantasy 14’s Eorzea. This means Changeling, Kobold, Goliath, Goblins, Dhampir, Aasimar, Laneshi, Yuan-ti, and many more are included. The Final Fantasy 14 races added are the Hyur, Elezen, Roegadyn, and Garlean.

The mod even makes Ogresh (like giant humans) from Grim Hollow playable.

Dungeons and Souls made all the new races compatible with current standards to "ensure that none of the races fall behind if they aren't already upgraded by the source material". “Fantastical Multiverse aims to aid players who play races outside of the vanilla and encourages the fantastical,” reads the mod’s description on Nexus.
There’s more to come, too. “Yes, all FF14 races will be added eventually,” Dungeons and Souls’ said in a post on X.
Baldur’s Gate 3’s explosive launch has come with an equally explosive modding scene, with everything from an improved user interface to a party limit increase available.
