Baldur\u2019s Gate 3’s Larian Studios Plans to ‘Move Away From D&D’\u060c<\/p>\n

\n

Baldur's Gate 3<\/strong> was undoubtedly one of the biggest releases of 2023, but it appears a fourth entry is off the cards. It turns out that developer Larian Studios is looking to move away from its action RPG series.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are a company of big ideas\u201d<\/h2>\n

During a speech at this year's GDC (as reported by PC gamer<\/a>), Larian CEO Swen Vincke said the Baldur's Gate series “will always have a warm place in our hearts”, but the team is leaving. Vincke adds that he “won't make new expansions like everyone expects.”<\/p>\n

Instead, the company will be moving on to something different, with an eye toward “creating something new” while taking a step back from long-running D&D games.<\/p>\n

As such, anyone expecting anything after Baldur's Gate 3 might be disappointed, with Vincke confirming that there won't be a follow-up in the series, at least from Larian.<\/p>\n

However, the franchise may not be entirely dead. The Dungeons & Dragons license for BG3 is held by Wizards of the Coast, who may decide to hand over a new game project to another studio in the future.<\/p>\n

There's no telling at this point what this new idea will develop, so it's hard to say how much it might deviate from the fantasy RPG series.<\/p>\n

When it was released in August last year, Baldur's Gate 3<\/strong> received immense praise. It went on to win<\/a> several awards, including Best Storytelling and Best Visual Design at the Golden Joystick Awards, as well as Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2023.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
