Xbox Series X/S owners eager for a Baldur's Gate 3 release date announcement will have a little longer to wait; developer Larian Studios has confirmed it'll be sharing the news during this year's Geoff-Keighley-hosted The Game Awards on 8th December.
Baldur's Gate 3's journey to Xbox has, of course, been a bit of a bumpy one; Larian confirmed the acclaimed RPG would be coming Microsoft's platform back February, amid fan fears the game was a PlayStation console exclusive, but noted it had "run into some technical issues - particularly with split-screen co-op."
The developer's struggles implementing split-screen co-op on Xbox Series S have continued as the year has gone on, meaning Baldur's Gate 3 hit PC and PlayStation 5 in August with still no word of an Xbox release date. Eventually, though, after hashing things out with Xbox boss Phil Spencer, Larian confirmed a "solution" had been found: it would be dropping split-screen co-op for Series S until a later date to ensure the RPG hit Xbox before the end of the year.
