15 percent of Baldur's Gate 3 playtime is spent in character creation
Larian Studios has released another set of statistics for Baldur's Gate 3 which reveal some illuminating statistics.
The accumulative playtime across all players is 452,556,984 hours, which is about 51,662 years. By contrast, 8196 of those years were spent in the character creator, accounting for 15.9 percent of all playtime.
1.3m players have finished the game's campaign at least once since Baldur's Gate 3 first released fully in August. If you're curious like me, you may be wondering what percentage of players this represents. While Larian hasn't specified sales numbers for the game, in August Larian CEO Sven Vincke told Bloomberg it had sold 2.5m copies on Steam during early access.
At 1.24m, the number of players who have turned themselves into rolling cheese wheels is almost the same as the number that have completed the game. I wonder how many people have been doing a cheese wheel only run as a challenge?
⚔️ Since our launch in August, over 1.3 million players have completed Baldur's Gate 3.
