Fake Baldur’s Gate 3 Mobile Port Appears on App Store
A fraudulent Baldur's Gate 3 mobile port has surfaced on the iOS App Store, prompting a warning to players. This fake app, deceptively presented with modified screenshots and a fabricated mobile HUD, is free initially but demands a steep $29.99 monthly subscription fee. Crucially, there is no official mobile version of Baldur's Gate 3.
The app, titled "Baldurs Gate 3 - Mobile Turuk" and attributed to developer "Dmytro Turuk," lacks any mention of Larian Studios or the Dungeons & Dragons franchise, raising immediate red flags. While visually convincing to some, the absence of these key details should alert users to its fraudulent nature.
Data Harvesting Concerns:
Beyond the subscription scam, the app's terms of service reveal a concerning data collection policy, potentially logging user IP addresses and other personal information. This highlights the potential risks associated with downloading and using unverified applications.
No Official Mobile Port:
Larian Studios has not announced any plans for an official Baldur's Gate 3 mobile port. While earlier Baldur's Gate titles are available on mobile, and Baldur's Gate 3 is accessible via Xbox Game Pass Ultimate streaming, this fraudulent app should be avoided entirely. Users who have already downloaded it are strongly urged to uninstall it immediately.
Cautionary Note:
This incident underscores the importance of verifying app authenticity before downloading. If an offer seems too good to be true, it likely is. Always check developer information and reviews carefully to avoid falling victim to similar scams. This isn't the first, nor likely the last, attempt to capitalize on the popularity of Baldur's Gate 3 through deceptive means.
