With such a massive scope, you might ponder “How many acts are in Baldur's Gate 3?” and fortunately for you, we’ve been playing the game nonstop to find out what all the chapters, main missions, levels and quests are, and have compiled them all for you in multiple lists covering the main missions, BG3 quests by region, personal quests and companion quests.

If you are a completionist (like us), this guide will be handy to check over to make sure you’ve done everything in a region before progressing, as some quests will become unavailable to you when you proceed from Act 2 to Act 3.

There are three acts in Baldur's Gate 3. You could consider there to be four if you include the Prologue, which is very short but technically is an act in of itself.

The rest of them (Acts 1, 2 and 3) are much longer. For some context, we put 50 hours into the game without having even gotten past the Last Light Inn.

Act 1 encompasses the starting area with the Druids Grove and Goblin Camp, the Mountain Pass with the Githyanki Crèche, the Underdark and Grymforge, all of which have numerous quests and secrets to uncover.

Act 2 sees you in the Shadow-Cursed Lands, where you must travel to the Moonrise Towers and confront Ketheric Thorn.

Act 3 is when you finally reach the titular city, and also when the endgame happens - we’ll stop short of saying exactly what happens next to avoid spoilers.
