Baldur’s Gate 3’s fifth big patch added some significant changes to Larian’s Dungeons & Dragons RPG, including a new epilogue, modes, and ways to accomplish previously impossible feats. It also had a slightly less significant update that is probably unnecessary, but is still glorious to behold: Characters’ dicks and balls now have jiggle physics.
11 Minutes With Baldur’s Gate 3’s Character Creator
Fans took notice of the update after it went live yesterday, November 30. We at Kotaku are nothing if not thorough, so I opened up the game to check for myself. The easiest way to see a willy wiggle is by going to the character creator or Magic Mirror, which lets you view and rotate your character’s model. If they aren’t wearing clothes or you toggle the “Hide Clothes” option in the character creator, they will rock out with their cock out, assuming that’s the option you’ve selected for their junk. Rotate their model fast enough, and everything starts flopping around.
If you don’t feel like booting up the game to see it for yourself, here’s a (very uncensored) video of Arendelle, my Bard Tiefling Daddy from my co-op campaign, to demonstrate:

In the run-up to Baldur’s Gate 3’slaunch, genital customization was an exciting addition to its character creator. Between body, pronoun, and genital options, Baldur’s Gate 3 lets you play around with form and identity in a way that’s pretty freeing. When I talked to Larian about adding genital customization earlier this year, it didn’t even occur to me that the studio would go the extra mile and add realistic flopping physics into the game months after launch. Clearly, I wasn’t thinking big enough.
I guess now I need to go back and see if this change affects any of the sex scenes. Most of the sequences were shot so they didn’t explicitly show the deed being done, but dicks are definitely visible in some of them. Someone start an entirely nude playthrough with hogs out and let us know how it goes in the comments.
