Baldur’s Gate 3 pre-order guide
Baldur’s Gate 3 is sprinting towards its official launch, and graduating from its three-year-long early access period on PC. The game was initially set to launch on Aug. 31, but Larian Studios did a move most unusual in the world of gaming launches: it shortened the wait time to Aug. 3 for the PC and Mac platforms.
The PS5 version has been delayed by week one from the initial launch window, and will now debut on Sept. 6. While an Xbox version has been confirmed to be in development, Larian Studios hasn’t shared when that system’s title will be available.
