Larian Studios’ Baldur’s Gate 3 is one of the most ambitious and celebrated RPGs of all time, and it deserves every ounce of popularity. With the game managing to still decimate player counts in 2025, BG3 is a game that could live forever.
However, following the release of Patch 8 this month, Larian is done with major updates to BG3 as the studio plans to “bid Faerun adieu”. While more Baldur’s Gate 3 content could release, especially considering past games owned by Wizards of the Coast saw additional DLC by new devs, Larian is mostly done.
Baldur’s Gate 3 devs put “full attention” to new project
In a post on Twitter, Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke commented on an amazing video telling the tale of Larian. Dubbed “From Bankruptcy to Baldur’s Gate 3”, the spectacular video goes through the history of the game developer and touches on some of its lowest points.
While commenting on the video, Vincke teased that Larian is far from done. The studio’s next project won’t be ready for many years, but the CEO still wants fans to “stay tuned”.
“Got me all nostalgic – it really has been a[n] incredible journey so far,” Vincke said. “But the story ain’t over yet. Stay tuned. Going to try to skip the dark night of the soul moment though if you don’t mind.”
In a separate statement to VideoGamer by Larian, it was confirmed that the team is now fully committed to the studio’s next project. While some minor support for BG3 is still in place for bug fixes and managing the game’s modding portal, the bulk of the studio is now acitvely developing its next game.
“Swen and the team[‘s]… full attention is focused on crafting their next title,” VideoGamer was told as Larian moves to a “media blackout” for the foreseeable future.
Preliminary work has already been done on Larian’s next RPG as graphics engineers quickly moved to fix the biggest technical issues with Baldur’s Gate 3. While the studio hasn’t revealed what their next game will be—although many are hoping it’s a return to Divinity—one thing is certain: it isn’t Baldur’s Gate 4.
