Baldur's Gate 3 Likely Gaining Hardcore Permadeath 'Honour Mode' Soon

Baldur’s Gate 3 Apparently Implementing 'Honour Mode' Based on a New Achievement Requirement Spotted by Redditor, Promising a Difficulty Level Similar to Prior Larian Games, Deleting Entire Game Progress Upon Complete Party Wipe Out.

Baldur's Gate 3 is expected to implement an extraordinarily challenging 'Honour Mode' that includes permadeath, deleting all game progress when the entire in-game party is defeated. This was deduced based on a new achievement requirement discovered by a Redditor on the PC platform GOG.
The feature, which originates from developer Larian Studio's previous Divinity: Original Sin series, restricts players to a single constantly updated autosave that deletes itself in the event of a complete party loss, locking the game to its most difficult setting, Tactician difficulty.
The introduction of this mode would signal a steep increase in Baldur's Gate 3's difficulty, as the game is already recognized for being full of tough battles, traps, and situations that can rapidly deteriorate with a single unlucky roll of the dice.
The presence of an 'Honour Mode' in Baldur's Gate 3 remains unconfirmed by Larian Studios, with no official announcements made at the time of the articles' publishing.
Despite its brutal difficulty level, Honour Mode is anticipated by players who crave a high-stakes, challenging gameplay experience in a game that can take hundreds of hours to complete.
