Baldur’s Gate 3 has so many cutscenes for a variety of occasions that it seems impossible to ever see them all. A YouTuber has now even put up a bounty of around 470 euros for a particularly rare scene.
Which cutscene is it? If you want to claim the monetary reward, you’ll need to look out for a specific scene featuring Karlach, where she attempts a spell she learned during her time in the Hells.
The magic works and suddenly Karlach breaks the 4th wall: She seems to understand that she is a character in a video game and asks the player her questions. You can read exactly how the conversation goes here:

A bounty for a cutscene – but only organic, please
Which Youtuber is giving away the money? The 500 dollars or about 470 euros was put up for grabs by YouTuber Proxy Gate Tactician. In a video he talks about myths surrounding Baldur’s Gate 3. He first discusses whether you can reach the max level before Act 3, whether animals larger than peacocks can enter Baldur’s Gate and how good the wall creation spell is.
Finally, he talks about the cutscene with Karlach breaking the fourth wall. The existence of the scene in the game was confirmed by the voice actress (via X.com), but according to in-game data, it cannot be triggered at the moment.
Finally, Proxy Gate Tactician offers his reward. The YouTube video starts at the corresponding time:
How do you get the reward? The YouTuber has a very specific idea of what you have to do to get the money: You have to show him a way to trigger the scene through pure gameplay.
That means:
Post a video of how you did it. If others can also trigger the cutscene using your method, Proxy Gate Tactician will send you the 470 euros.
What about you? Have you seen the cutscene before? Have you perhaps already unlocked it and thought about grabbing the money? Let us know in the comments.
