Dungeons & Dragons fans can be happy: Baldur’s Gate 3 is coming, and after what we saw at Summer Game Fest 2023, we can’t wait for August to get here. We’re sure it’ll make our list of the best RPGs of the year because it lets you create your character in great detail and has robust and turn-based battle systems.
This is one of the many new games coming out in 2023 that we’ve been watching since it’s been in early access for a while. That means we know much about the classes, romance systems, allies, and other parts of the game and can tell you about them. As in the below article, we will discuss Balfdurs Gate 3 release date and many other things related to it.
Baldurs Gate 3 Release Date

The PC version of Baldur’s Gate 3 is scheduled to be released on August 3, but the PlayStation 5 version won’t be available until September 6.
Here are some more latest updates of games below:
Baldur’s Gate 3 Platforms
Baldur’s Gate 3 will appear on PS5, Mac, and PC on day one. Other systems are being discussed, but some have been ruled out. If you want to know if Baldur’s Gate 3 is on PS5, Xbox, and Switch, the guide below will tell you what devices and platforms you’ll need.
How Far Can You Play In Early Access?
In the first act, there is part of the Sword Coast in the Forgotten Realms, the Underdark below it, an old castle called Grymforge, and a short trip through Hell. Baldur’s Gate, the game’s central city, doesn’t show up in the first act, which is a shame, but there’s still a lot to do.
There are more than 20 hours of information in the first act. Unsurprisingly, the Early Access version has a level cap: after a level raise in December 2022, your characters can only reach level 5 before they stop growing.
How long you finish the first act depends on how many fights you get into and how much you explore. If you do the main quest, you’ll go all over the world map, but there’s a lot to find if you go off the usual path.
If you need to get it done quickly, a speedrunner has done it in seven minutes, which is obvious. Baldur’s Gate 3’s Early Access is more involved than Divinity: Original Sin 2’s Early Access. When BG3 came out, many more fights, characters, spells, and lines of conversation were added over time.
What Choices Are There For Origin Characters?
As was said above, you can choose an Origin character as your main character. This is a character whose Larian story was made by hand. Origin characters will be offered as companions if you make a character entirely your own.
- Astarion – High Elf Rogue
- Gale – Human Wizard
- Lae’zel – Githyanki Fighter
- Shadowheart – Half-elf Cleric
- Wyll – Human Warlock
- Karlach – Tiefling Barbarian
