Baldur's Gate 3 Still Has "About A Year Left Of Development" Before Leaving Early Access
Though it's been in early access since October 2020, Baldur's Gate 3 won't be officially launching any time soon. Larian Studios says that the game won't be leaving early access until sometime next year.

We think we have about a year left of development at this point. So, it's not going to be for the next couple of months at 1.0 stage, but we're dealing with burndown charts that are going down rather than up.»

«We still have quite some work on finishing the companions, which is where the romance scenes come into account,» Vincke told Fanbyte. «We still have a bunch of them to make. We've been experimenting, we've done a lot of stuff, and we still have some tweaks to do. So, I would imagine that most of them will come online on 1.0, because they will be ready late.»
