Baldur's Gate 3 Player Makes Neat Discovery About Companion Portraits

A Baldur's Gate 3 player online has shared a cool discovery about the game's companion portraits, indicating that they're not quite what they seem. Baldur's Gate 3 remains one of the most popular games around, and it seems that the game has plenty of secrets to discover yet.

The companions in Baldur's Gate 3 are an essential part of the overall experience.
