To celebrate Baldurs Gate's 25th anniversary a while ago in 2023, we organized a Community Contest with O.G. artist Mike Sass to give our players the chance of a lifetime: to have their portraits transformed into the art style of Baldurs Gate and added to the game.
A lot of fans participated in the Contest, and all of you wanted Mike to draw more than just 2 portraits. We summoned a Djinni, and it granted your Wish (although the Djinni certainly took their time), with the Reflections Of Myth & Valor portrait pack coming to Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store on April 29th alongside free community portraits of the two Contest winners (separate download).
Reflections Of Myth & Valor will allow you to customize your characters look and feel with sixteen brand new portraits representing a huge variety of classes, subclasses, races, and alignments that the Baldurs Gate games are known for.
To give you a glimpse of the quality level of Mike Sasss portraits, here are the two Contest winners:
Please add the portrait pack to your Steam Wishlist!

Its time to reveal the winners of The Faces of Baldurs Gate I & II: Enhanced Editions Contest: Ashley Rich & Andrew Lim! Congratulations, Ashley and Andrew, youll get your portraits transformed into the art style of Baldurs Gate by Mike Sass!
Hamsters and rangers everywhere, rejoice! The Faces of Baldurs Gate I & II: Enhanced Editions Contest was such a success that it took us and Mike Sass a little bit more than 3 weeks to go through the submissions and pick the winners. You definitely rolled 18 Charisma for your CHARNAMEs! Were so humbled by the number of participants and the quality of your photos, stories, and character conceptsthat we might have something extra in store for a few additional finalists! (Boo says: Squeak!) Please check out the letter by Mike Sass below and stay tuned to our socials (Twitter & Facebook) in the upcoming weeks to find out who rolled a critical hit!
This year we're celebrating the 25th anniversary of Baldurs Gate, a game by BioWare that is so dear to all of us at Beamdog! In 1998, a legend was born, and this legend continues to live today thanks to an amazing community of Baldurs Gate players. And just this past November we celebrated our own small anniversary 10 years since the release of Baldurs Gate: Enhanced Edition. All these years YOU (yes, YOU) have been with us, sharing stories about your adventures on the Sword Coast, providing feedback, and showing how much Baldurs Gate means to you. We want to give you something special in return, and at the same time pay respect to the original game. We reached out to Mike Sass, the original artist who had created all the portraits of your beloved Baldurs Gate companions: Minsc, Dynaheir, Jaheira, Khalid, Edwin, Viconia, the list can only go on! Mike kindly agreed, and now we want to give back to you, the players. We want you to define and be the Faces of Baldurs Gate I & II: Enhanced Editions. Our community members are the true faces of the Baldur's Gate world and we want to honor that. Starting TODAY, we'd love it if you submitted your Photo to social@beamdog.com for a chance to be selected as one of two community members immortalized in a character portrait by Mike Sass. He will create your portrait in the original Baldurs Gate style and your face could be added to the games! In your email, answer the following questions for Mike to draw inspiration from when creating his portraits: [olist]
