With the arrival of Patch 7, Baldur's Gate 3 has finally made mods available on consoles, unlocking fresh possibilities for gameplay customization. Although console modding options aren't as expansive as those on PC, players can still enjoy a variety of mods that significantly enhance and diversify the game. These mods offer new ways to tweak gameplay elements and introduce creative content, breathing new life into the experience on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S and X.

Larian Studios remains committed to expanding console mod support, and the mods that are already available bring impressive visual and mechanical improvements to the game. Here are the top 10 mods that are currently enhancing Baldur’s Gate 3 on consoles.

10. Underwear of Rituals

Despite its amusing name, the Underwear of Rituals mod provides some seriously powerful abilities for players in Baldur's Gate 3. This mod grants characters the ability to communicate with animals, converse with the dead, and even read minds, making it a fantastic tool for those who want to uncover every secret hidden in Faerun.

With this mod, players equip enchanted underwear that functions similarly to the well-known Ring of Minor Rituals. It’s not only powerful but also conveniently placed in various locations, like the Nautiloid and the Druid's Grove, ensuring that the mystical abilities are easily accessible throughout the campaign.

9. Hair Unlocked

For players who love character customization, the Hair Unlocked mod is a must-have. This mod adds 30 new hairstyle options to the game, letting you style your character like popular figures such as Karlach, Shadowheart, or Minthara. Now, you can truly replicate the iconic looks of your favorite companions.

The mod doesn't stop there—it introduces unique hairstyles for nearly every race in the game. Whether you're aiming for Gale and Astarion’s sophisticated styles or Karlach and Halsin’s rugged looks, this mod brings more depth to your customization options, making your character's journey through Faerun even more personal.

8. FaerunColors

For those who enjoy personalizing their character’s gear, the FaerunColors mod is a perfect fit. It introduces an array of new color options for armor and clothing, allowing players to create truly unique looks as they progress through Baldur's Gate 3.

Each new dye in this mod is inspired by the deities of Baldur's Gate 3 and other mythological figures, designed to match different armor types. Some shades are ideal for robes, while others are better suited to heavy armor, enhancing your character's appearance with divine flair.

7. Better Inventory UI

While the default inventory system in Baldur's Gate 3 gets the job done, the Better Inventory UI mod takes it up a notch. This mod refines the user interface to make navigation more intuitive, with customized icons and backgrounds that help distinguish key items like books and grenades.

This improvement is especially useful for console players, as it streamlines inventory management during gameplay. Identifying tools like lockpicks or health kits becomes a breeze, making combat and exploration far more fluid and enjoyable.

6. ImprovedUI

The ImprovedUI mod is essential for anyone looking to get the most out of Baldur’s Gate 3 on consoles. It enhances the user interface and supports custom action icons, while also offering expanded character creation options, including new racial features and the removal of character head restrictions.

By minimizing potential conflicts between different UI mods, ImprovedUI ensures a smoother gameplay experience. It’s a vital addition for players who want to dive deeper into character progression and visual customization.

5. Kuo-Toa Playable Race

For those wanting to break away from the traditional races in Baldur’s Gate 3, the Kuo-Toa Playable Race mod offers a fantastic alternative. It lets you play as the Kuo-Toa, a fish-like race with a violent nature that you encounter in the Underdark during Act 1.

This mod doesn’t just add a new race; it also includes unique spells themed around the Kuo-Toa’s abilities. It’s the perfect choice for players who crave a monstrous character to bring a different flavor to their adventures in Faerun.

4. Mystic Class

The Mystic Class mod introduces a new psionic-focused class to the world of Baldur’s Gate 3, expanding the game’s role-playing options significantly. It’s ideal for players who have already explored the base classes and are looking for something fresh.

Complete with subclasses and specific psionic talents, this mod allows character progression up to level 20, assuming you've unlocked the level cap. It’s a great way to reinvigorate your journey through Faerun with new skills and abilities.

3. Warlock Celestial

The Warlock Celestial subclass mod redefines the traditional role of a Warlock by emphasizing healing and supportive spells rather than dark pacts. This subclass allows you to bring light into the darkest corners of Faerun, with abilities that heal allies and fend off enemies.

With features like Healing Light and resistance to Radiant damage, along with enhanced power for Fire and Radiant spells, the Warlock Celestial subclass offers a more defensive yet powerful approach to gameplay, blending offense and support seamlessly.

2. UnlockLevelCurve - Level 13-20

In Baldur's Gate 3, characters are typically capped at level 12 to maintain game balance. However, the UnlockLevelCurve - Level 13-20 mod allows players to push beyond this limit and experience higher-level abilities and spells.

This mod lets you convert excess experience points into new levels, unleashing the full potential of your spellcasters and combatants. It’s a thrilling way to explore what happens when the game's restrictions are lifted, offering new dimensions of chaos and power.

1. Adjustable Party Limit

Breaking the standard four-member party limit, the Adjustable Party Limit mod allows players to assemble a squad of up to 16 companions. While it might make the game’s battles a bit easier, it adds a whole new level of epicness to your encounters across Faerun.

Whether you want to gather your entire main party to experience all the dialogue in a single playthrough or simply dominate your enemies with overwhelming force, this mod provides a fun way to tailor your experience in Baldur’s Gate 3.

These mods offer incredible ways to customize and elevate your journey through Baldur’s Gate 3 on consoles. Dive in and transform your adventure in Faerun with these must-try enhancements!
