This update comes on the heels of Baldur’s Gate 3’s eventful journey across gaming platforms. Initially launched on PC in August, it made its way to PlayStation in September, followed by a surprise Xbox release in December during The Game Awards. Interestingly, Larian’s Swen Vincke had planned to announce the Xbox release date in his acceptance speech at the awards, but the moment slipped his mind.

The Xbox version’s release was a topic of much debate, especially with reports suggesting the Xbox Series S version’s technical limitations were delaying its launch. However, following discussions with Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer, it was agreed that Baldur’s Gate 3 would debut on Xbox Series S without split-screen support, a feature that might be added later.

Jake Dekker from GameSpot, in his review, awarded Baldur’s Gate 3 a perfect score. He emphasized the game’s unparalleled freedom, offering players an almost overwhelming array of choices and consequences. Dekker noted that Baldur’s Gate 3 allows players an unprecedented level of control over their gaming narratives.

For Xbox Series X|S players, this update not only fixes a critical issue but also reinforces Larian Studios’ commitment to providing a seamless gaming experience across all platforms. As gamers dive back into the rich, choice-driven world of Baldur’s Gate 3, they can now do so with the assurance of stability and continued support.
