FULL STORY
======================================================================

At long last, the wait is over - Larian Studios has officially revealed the 
release date for the Xbox Series X |S version of Baldurs Gate 3 , and players 
will be able to dive into the actionimmediately. 

Well isnt this a nice surprise? Its been stated a few times by the developers 
that Baldurs Gate 3 would be hitting Xboxs current-gen consoles by the end of 
the year , but Im not sure if anyone was expecting it to happen right here, 
right now. Prospective players are now able to download a digital version of 
the enormous role-playing game, so the only thing stopping them from diving 
in is the increasingly large file size; and the hours theyll inevitably spend 
on the character creation screen, of course. 

While Baldurs Gate 3 released on PC in August and PlayStation 5 a month 
later, the developers faced difficulties during development trying to get the 
split-screen co-op feature working on Xbox Series S. In August, Larian boss 
Swen Vincke revealed that the Series S version will no longer feature 
split-screen at launch , but the official Xbox Twitter account clarified that 
it will continue to work alongside the developers to explore the addition in 
a post-launch capacity.This could be the first game to flout Microsoft's 
version parity requirement for games launching on the Xbox Series S and X 

For those whove been hanging on for a physical version of Baldurs Gate 3 , 
the physical deluxe edition for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC is set to ship 
in Q1 2024, complete with a whole load of extra bonuses such as a soundtrack 
and map. It wont be a limited-run product , so theres no need to worry about 
buying from scalpers at an inflated price.
