Baldur’s Gate 1 and 2 Might be Coming to Xbox Game Pass

Game Pass subscribers may have seen notifications from the Xbox Game Pass app about Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2 coming to the subscription service.

Microsoft has seemingly accidentally revealed that Baldur’s Gate Enhanced Edition and Baldur’s Gate 2 Enhanced Edition will be making their way on to Xbox Game pass. According to TrueAchievements, notifications about the games coming to Game Pass went out to subscribers with the Xbox Game Pass app installed on their smartphones.

“Rediscover two RPG Classics,” reads the notification. “Customize your hero, recruit brave allies, and explore mystical realms in your search for adventure, profit… and the truth. Play Baldur’s Gate 1 and 2 with Game Pass.”

The notification seems to have been a mistake, however, as the games aren’t part of the list of titles slated to be coming to PC and Xbox Game Pass in January. Then again, there’s a chance that they will be included in the subscription service’s wave 2 lineup later in the month.

It is worth noting for those that might be interested in revisiting the classic RPGs that, while the first two Baldur’s Gate titles are still excellent games with fantastic stories, they aren’t really connected as heavily to Baldur’s Gate 3 as the franchise name would imply.

Baldur’s Gate 3, on the other hand, has been an incredible success for developer Larian Studios, with the RPG having swept up several Game of the Year awards from different parts of the industry.
