Baldur’s Gate 3 Releases in August 2023

The epic Dungeons and Dragons RPG finally launches next year after entering early access in 2020. Also, Minsc returns and isn't happy.

Ever since it entered early access development in October 2020, everyone has wondered when Larian Studios’ Baldur’s Gate 3 would release. Its new trailer at The Game Awards finally answered – August 2023. Check it out below.

Of course, there’s a lot more to see, like the city of Baldur’s Gate, various enemies (including a massive red dragon and a Mimic), and the return of Minsc. As it turns out, a cult kidnapped Minsc and seemingly trapped him inside a Mimic chest. He escapes brutally and is none too happy about the imprisonment, which should make for some fun times.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is currently available for PC, with Act 1 playable in Steam Early Access. A new Panel from Hell is coming next week, with Patch 9 also out before the year ends. Larian confirmed that Acts 2 and 3 were actively being play-tested and more content is coming to Act 1. Stay tuned for more details next week.
