Baldur’s Gate 3, the highly acclaimed game, is finally making its way to Xbox after a series of releases on other platforms. The announcement comes after the game received multiple nominations for The Game Awards. Fans can expect an official announcement in the coming week, promising exciting news for Xbox players and physical media enthusiasts.
The game was initially released on PC in August, followed by a PlayStation 5 release in September and a Mac release shortly after. However, Xbox fans have been eagerly waiting for their turn. Fortunately, during Gamescom, it was revealed that an Xbox Series X|S release was in the works and Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke confirmed that the release was “very close” in early November.
With eight nominations at The Game Awards, Baldur’s Gate 3 has been generating a lot of buzz. In light of this, Larian Studios teased Xbox players and physical media fans with the promise of more news in the upcoming busy week. It remains unclear whether the announcement will be made during the current week or leading up to The Game Awards on December 7th. Regardless, Xbox players can expect an official announcement soon.
The mention of “physical media” in the teaser adds an intriguing element. It could be a nod to players who prefer owning physical copies of games rather than digital downloads. This wouldn’t be the first time fans have been treated to physical goodies, as the initial release of Baldur’s Gate 3 included a Collector’s Edition with various items such as a diorama, an art book, stickers, and Magic: The Gathering booster packs.
