Can I Add the Dark Urge to My Current Playthrough?

-

I’m replaying the game after patch 8 and started without the Dark Urge character. I’m almost done with Act 1 and I’m curious if there’s any way to incorporate the Dark Urge in my current campaign without having to restart the game. Is it possible?

Nope, you’re stuck with the custom origin in your current run. The game is designed for those specific story beats in the Dark Urge run, and trying to force it into your existing playthrough won’t work out well. Plus, many companions won’t vibe with the darker choices, so it could lead to some awkward gameplay.

Unfortunately, you can’t add the Dark Urge during a regular campaign. It’s specifically tied to the Dark Urge character origin, so you’d need to start a new game to experience it. However, you can still play as an Unholy Assassin of Bhaal, but that’s the closest you can get without restarting.

Yeah, just keep your current save for another playthrough later and start over with the Dark Urge this time. You’ll get to experience some amazing content!

If you’re asking about adding the Dark Urge as a companion, that’s not possible. You just have to start fresh with a new character to get that origin vibe. Sorry!
