Want to customize your dice rolls in Baldur's Gate 3? Learn how to change your dice skin colors and unlock new designs like Scuffed Metal, Behir Blue, and more!

Alright, so you want to make your dice rolls look cooler in Baldur's Gate 3? Totally get it! It's not super obvious at first, but changing up your dice skins is pretty straightforward once you know where to look. Basically, you need to be in a situation where you're about to roll the dice – think dialogue checks, trying to pick a lock, or anything else that requires a roll. Don't worry, these moments pop up all the time, so you won't have to search far.

When you're on that screen where the dice are about to tumble, keep an eye on the bottom left. You'll see a little die symbol there. Click on that, and BAM! You'll get a menu showing all the dice designs you've managed to snag. What you have available depends on which version of the game you bought and if you've linked your Larian account. Let's break down how to get 'em.

  • Scuffed Metal Dice Skin: This is your default, good ol' reliable purple dice with white numbers. Everyone gets this one, no special hoops to jump through!
  • Behir Blue Dice Skin: To unlock this slick blue design, you just need to link your Larian account to whatever platform you're playing on – whether that's Steam or GOG. If you're playing on PC, just open the game through your platform, sign into your Larian account, and you should see a prompt to connect them. It usually links up automatically, but if you don't see the dice skin right away, try restarting your platform client. You can always unlink them later if you want, but keeping them linked means you won't have to sign in to Larian every time you launch the game.
  • Dragonflame Red (Deluxe Edition) Dice Skin: This fiery red design comes with the Deluxe Edition of Baldur's Gate 3. If you were playing during Early Access on PC, you were likely upgraded to the Deluxe Edition automatically, so you should already have this one.
  • Illithid Purple (Collector’s Edition) Dice Skin: Ready to go all out? This deep purple design is part of the Collector's Edition. It's a pretty sweet package, including a bunch of cool physical items like an art book, a diorama, and even a real D20 die, alongside the digital dice skin.

Heads Up on Mods: Since Baldur's Gate 3 is mod-friendly, you can bet there are already mods out there for custom dice skins, and more will definitely pop up. If the official options aren't enough, you can check out sites like Nexus Mods. Just remember, messing with game files can sometimes mess up your saves, so always back up your game folders before installing any mods!
