LogInLarian Studios' role-playing game, Baldur's Gate 3, is coming sooner than expected on PC, but later than planned on PlayStation 5.
Baldur's Gate 3 is now coming out on August 3rd - almost a month sooner than its previously planned date of August 31. Meanwhile, the PlayStation 5 version will be released roughly a week later, on September 6th.
Discussing the change in the release date, Larian Studios Head Michael Douse explained that while the PC version was ready to go, the PS5 edition needed slightly more time. "Reaching a technical bar that matches our design ambitions felt like the right move while holding back the PC version when we knew we'd be ready felt like the wrong move in such a busy launch period," said Douse in a press release. Baldur's Gate 3 is targeting 60 frames-per-second and the developers are close to achieving that but need a bit more extra time.
One of the reasons for the change in the release date is "an extremely busy period for RPGs" with Starfield and Cyberpunk's releases coming up.
Speaking about the launch on Xbox consoles, Douse explained that their goal is to bring games to as many platforms as possible. "We're optimistic about Baldur’s Gate 3 on the Xbox Series X, but in order to announce and release the game on Xbox, we need to ensure that the game is performing without compromise across the entire Xbox X and S ecosystem".
