After six years in development, Larian Studios (Divinity: Original Sin 2) unleashed turn-based RPG Baldur’s Gate 3 on PC. The PlayStation 5 version will be making its arrival in September. Check out the launch trailer above to get properly hyped and prepared for some Mind Flayer tadpole action.
Abducted, infected, lost. You are turning into a monster, but as the corruption inside you grows, so does your power. That power may help you to survive, but there will be a price to pay, and more than any ability, the bonds of trust that you build within your party could be your greatest strength. Caught in a conflict between devils, deities, and sinister otherworldly forces, you will determine the fate of the Forgotten Realms together.
To prepare Baldur’s Gate 3 players for takeoff, the devs shared a quick launch guide and a more lengthy FAQ. Check them out should you need any help! There will be more updates from the devs in the coming days. But here is a message from Larian founder and creative director, Swen Vincke, to set the tone for this momentous occasion:
“It’s hard to express how much love went into creating Baldur’s Gate 3. For over six years, more than 400 of us poured our hearts and souls into making this, helped by over 2.5 million Early Access players who spent countless hours giving us feedback.
The result is a beautiful, rich universe where you can escape from your daily worries, experience adventure and wonder, and have many many cool and exciting encounters. It’s a place where your identity and choices matter, where surprise lies around every corner, and where your agency is truly rewarded.
I’m super proud of what our team accomplished and I hope you will have an incredible amount of fun exploring what we prepared for you.”
