As spotted by Kotaku editor Jason Schreier and Twitter user the creators of the previously-mentioned Divinity Original Sin 2, Larian Studios, could be working on Baldur's Gate 3.
A sequel has never been truly announced, and it's left the future of the franchise up in the air for quite a while now.Īmazingly, that may be changing today. After all, the last time anything Baldur's Gate-related happened was when the Enhanced Editions for both games were launched - and that was years ago now.
However, though there's a deeply-rooted love for the Baldur's Gate franchise that still exists within the RPG community, that affection has always been tempered by a hint of disappointment. Given the stiff competition the game has faced over the years from titles like Skyrim, The Witcher 3, and even Divinity Original Sin 2, that praise should not be taken lightly. Baldur's Gate 1 was a solid game in its own right, but its sequel, Baldur's Gate 2, is widely considered one of the greatest RPGs ever made.
In context: If you've never heard of the Baldur's Gate franchise, you're missing out.
