The fantasy role-playing game Baldur’s Gate 3 from Larian Studios is replete with ways to deal damage to enemies, but due to the nature of the project, modern firearms were not among them. Until recently.

As I noticed PCGamesN, pistols, machine guns and other “barrels” in Baldur’s Gate 3 from the last week of 2023, modder Palmaman33 began to add. He motivated his initiative as follows: “Who needs a sword when you have an assault rifle?”
In a series of mods that began releasing on December 30, Palmaman33 integrated into Baldur’s Gate 3 M1911 pistol, Colt Python revolver, Kalashnikov assault rifle (AKM), Glock 19 pistol, grenade launcher RPG-7 and Barrett M82 sniper rifle.
All of the listed types of weapons have several degrees of rarity (the higher it is, the more powerful the “barrel”). AKM, for example, starts with 6-17 points of damage, while its legendary version deals from 12 to 126 points of damage.
To get the mentioned types of firearms, you just need to contact some merchants or call a chest from the tutorial (you can do this thanks to this modification).

Just for fun, Palmaman33 also added it to Baldur’s Gate 3 «comically large spoon»which works exactly like a two-handed sword and deals (in its legendary version) up to 80 damage per strike.
Baldur’s Gate 3 isn’t the only fantasy RPG where modders have added inappropriate firearms. In December 2022, this happened with The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall (the mod is still being updated).
