Baldur’s Gate 3 will release August 31, 2023, Larian Studios announced during today’s Sony State of Play 2023, also confirming that it will release on PS5.
The release date was revealed alongside a new trailer highlighting various character classes, shots of the splitscreen multiplayer, and plenty of battles. Even J.K. Simmons made an appearance, where he was confirmed to be playing antagonist General Ketheric Thorm.
“Ketheric is a man with complex ambitions and motivations, so in searching for his voice, we knew we needed to work with a renowned character actor who could deliver the kind of nuanced performance we were looking for – so we decided to cast J.K. Simmons (Whiplash, Spider-Man),” director Swen Vincke told the PlayStation Blog. “While we expected it, we were still amazed at how much his performance helped deepen the character. We’ll introduce you to two more antagonists over the coming months – keep an eye out.”
In addition to revealing its new protagonist, Larian Studios also confirmed split-screen co-op and controller support while showing off the Baldur’s Gate 3 Deluxe Edition and Collector’s Edition.
First announced back in 2019, Baldur’s Gate 3 is the follow-up to BioWare’s classic RPGs from the 90s. It is being developed by Larian Studios, which previously worked on the acclaimed Divinity: Original Sin series.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is slated for release on PC and PlayStation 5. Go here for everything revealed during today’s stream.
