These times are for the Baldur’s Gate 3 PC version alone, with the PlayStation 5 release coming later on September 6. As for the Xbox Series X and S version, Larian Studios has confirmed that it is in the works but with the release date yet to be announced, as it has stumbled upon technical difficulties regarding the cooperative split-screen mode, which isn’t running at the same standard on both Xbox Series X and S.
For those who have been enjoying Baldur’s Gate 3 so far on PC, the Early Access saves won’t be compatible with the final version, since “so much has changed.” Players will have to go for a fresh start and enjoy this take on the universe of Dungeons & Dragons with a new mindset and a hefty dose of snacks, as experiencing everything will take about 200 hours.
