Gortash’s Parents have a residence in the Lower City. Find them to learn more about the tyrant in Baldur’s Gate 3.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a massive RPG filled with all kinds of secrets to discover. Act 3 ups the ante as you and your party finally reach the titular city of Baldur’s Gate. The city is even larger than the first two sections of the game. It can be a bit overwhelming at first, but with time you will learn the streets and underbelly of the city through exploration.




Gortash is introduced as a primary antagonistic force at the end of Act Two. He has established himself as the Duke of the city and placed the powerful Steel Watchers around the city as his guard. It’s very easy to miss that both of his parents are alive and live in the Lower City. You can find them in their family store and learn more about the cruel tyrant’s backstory. This guide will contain some possible spoilers.
