The Baldur’s Gate 3 cast love their characters so much that they made them playlists

In between playing (andreplaying) Baldur’s Gate 3, you might find yourself wanting to connect with the game’s iconic characters a little more. As it turns out, there’s a very easy way to do that, thanks to the stellar voice cast: some of them made character playlists!

The actors behind vampire Rogue Astarion, ambitious Wizard Gale, Archdruid (and sometimes bear) Halsin, lovable tiefling Barbarian Karlach, and infernal blacksmith Dammon have all made character playlists. And because I have very normal feelings about all of the characters in this games, I’m going to be listening to them all on repeat.

Neil Newbon’s Astarion playlist clocks in at 9 hours and 51 minutes, which given the fact that Astarion is an immortal vampire who’s been through shit does make sense. It’s also got the range, from Disturbed’s cover of “The Sound of Silence” (a very good cover, if you ask me) to “Rain on Me” by Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande. Also included is “Perhaps Vampires is a Bit Strong But...” by Arctic Monkeys (I see what you did there, Neil).

Halsin’s playlist is shorter, at just around an hour. Dave Jones, the voice actor behind gentle (and incredibly horny) Archdruid Halsin (yes, the one who can turn into a bear), made his character’s playlist in Apple Music (if you’re not an Apple Music user, a fan compiled it in Spotify). Some highlights include “I’m Going Home” from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and also “Unholy (feat. Kim Petras)” by Sam Smith (I told you — Halsin is horny).

Samantha Béart, who voices Karlach, said on X that they were inspired by Newbon’s Astarion playlist to make one for Karlach. “Though in truth,” they added, “it would just be Ace of Spades on a loop.” Karlach’s playlist is full of similar headbangers, like
