Sven Vinka talked about when to expect the release of Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox

Sven Vinka said that Baldur’s Gate 3 will appear on Xbox Series X/S in the period from September to November. The role -playing game will appear on PS5 on September 6, and the PC version was released at the beginning of this month.

Now 2023. And 2023 ends, so this is already quite accurate. Between September and November. That is, as fast as we can, honestly

According to Vinka, the studio is currently preparing to launch the game on the PS5, and the Xbox Series X/S will be released after the first console release and the first few patches for PC version will be released.

So the version for Xbox Series X was already in good shape when I looked at it for the last time. Therefore, we just go on points: "So that we still need to do?". There are many things that should happen to complete work on it. But I think that from the point of view of content and from a technical point of view, we are very close to this.

Further, Vinka said that the development of the Baldur’s Gate 3 version for Xbox Series X/S went smoothly, except for the problems that the studio encountered, trying to introduce a local cooperative multiplayer into the game on a less powerful Xbox Series Series Series. Since then, the company announced that it would not use this function for Xbox Series S for the sake of the release of the game on the console.

She already worked before, so this should not take much time. This does not mean that we will not try to force the game to work in a separate screen, because, as I said, the team continues to optimize the game for all platforms, because we really want to achieve 60 frames per second on all platforms.

It is worth noting that the studio expressed interest in the fact that the local cooperative nevertheless appears in the version of the game for Xbox Series S, and may continue to optimize the use of the game resources so that it works better and be full on this console.

Further, the Baldur’s Gate 3 gamedector said that he is going to conduct an additional optimization of the game in order to reduce its system requirements on the PC to make a game available for a larger number of players on less powerful equipment. The studio is working to ensure that the game works with a stable frame rate close to 60 FPS.

The problem of optimization is that. With such a number of parallel working systems with a multi -user game, a separated screen, etc.D. You never know where you will end. And, I mean, we saw how people go with the armies of followers, with all zombies and the like, and then they stand on the roof and let fire balls throughout the city. And it’s great that you can do all this, but the car suffers. And we want to achieve this as high as possible, because it will ultimately allow more people to play Baldur’s Gate 3.
