Larian working on two new projects that will be better than ‘Baldur’s Gate 3’

Larian Studios has confirmed it is working on two new projects based on original IPs.Earlier this year, the studio confirmed it would not be working on Baldur’s Gate 4, nor would it be developing any significant new content for Baldur’s Gate 3.

As part of a blog detailing an upcoming patch for the game though, Larian explained what is next for the studio.“After six years in the Forgotten Realms and much discussion and rumination, we’ve decided to seize this opportunity to develop our own IPs.

We’re currently working on two new projects and we couldn’t be more excited about what the future has in store,” the post explained.Both projects are in the “early days” of development “but know that even as our focus turns to these new games, the sensibilities that brought you Baldur’s Gate 3 are alive and well here at the Larian castle,” the post said. “We’re fuelled by the very same fire in our bellies, one that drives us to create immersive experiences shaped by your choices, and we can’t wait for you to join us on this next adventure.”In a bid to calm any worries about these new ventures, Larian also shared a statement from CEO Swen Vincke. “I don’t know if we’re going to pull it off, but looking at our narrative, visual and gameplay plans, I think what we’re working on now will be our best work ever.

I get excited like a kid watching the key imagery, want to show it to everyone now and grumble in frustration at having to wait until it’s actually all working.
