Magic Missile is one of the oldest signature spells from Dungeons & Dragons, famous for creating darts of magical force that automatically hit their target. Larian Studios brought that rule to life in Baldur's Gate 3, released in 2023, giving the spell a distinctive casting sound players hear early and often. Clips of the volley spread through RPG streams and edits because the auto-hit gimmick is instantly recognisable, even to viewers who have never played the game or the tabletop original.
