Baldur's Gate 3[/url] confirmed that it won't be doing
Baldur's Gate 4 — but it does have other irons in the fire. </p>
<p> "We won't be introducing any major new narrative content to the story of
Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3) or its origin characters and companions, nor will we be making expansions or
Baldur’s Gate 4," Larian Studio wrote in a <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1086940/view/4172097464031362567">community update on Steam[/url]. "We’re currently working on two new projects and we couldn’t be more excited about what the future has in store."</p>
<span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>Larian promised more news about the new games "later down the line," but did give a hint about the style. "Know that even as our focus turns to these new games, the sensibilities that brought you Baldur’s Gate 3 are alive and well here at the Larian castle. I don’t know if we’re going to pull it off, but looking at our narrative, visual and gameplay plans, I think what we’re working on now will be our best work ever."</p>

Baldur's Gate 3 has been <a data-i13n="cpos:5;pos:1" href="
https://www.metacritic.com/game/baldurs-gate-3/">praised[/url] for its breadth, character development, puzzles, combat, D&D fidelity and, of course, <a data-i13n="cpos:6;pos:1" href="
https://www.gamesradar.com/baldurs-gate-3-romances-relationships/">intimate relationships[/url]. It sold around 15 million copies, far exceeding the expectations of the studio, while pretty much sweeping game accolades over the last year. Namely, it took game of the year prizes at The Game Awards, The Steam Awards, D.I.C.E. awards, Streamer Awards, Hugo Awards, GLAAD Media Awards and others.</p>
<p>Director Swen Vincke <a data-i13n="cpos:7;pos:1" href="
https://www.ign.com/articles/larian-started-work-on-baldurs-gate-3-dlc-then-canceled-it-the-studio-was-elated">previously revealed[/url] that the studio dropped plans for BG3 DLC and a sequel, partly due to constraints imposed by the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition mechanics. Still, there's no question of a sequel for the Hasbro-owned property. "We've done our job. It's a story with a beginning, a middle and an end. So let's pass the torch to another studio to pick up this incredible legacy," he added. </p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at
