Baldur's Gate 3's Minsc is officially appearing in a new 2027 video game, although fans should expect a different side to Minsc and his beloved miniature giant space hamster, Boo. Larian Studios' critically acclaimed RPG introduced millions of players to the world of Dungeons and Dragons, featuring memorable characters like Astarion, Shadowheart, Karlach, and Minsc. While some of these characters were created specifically for Baldur's Gate 3, others like Minsc have been around for decades, appearing in previous games and other D&D adventures. Now, one of the franchise's oldest characters is returning in an entirely different kind of game.
Minsc and Boo have been part of the Baldur's Gate franchise since the original game launched in 1998, returning in both Baldur's Gate 3 and Baldur's Gate 3. Although Larian has moved on from the series, there's still plenty of interest in seeing these characters return. Now, another developer is bringing Minsc and Boo back for a new adventure.
Warlock: Dungeons & Dragons is tackling open-world handholding in a clever way, but whether it works across a full game is another question.
Minsc and Boo are confirmed to appear in Dungeons and Dragons: Long Rest Tavern, an upcoming PC game...
