Baldur's Gate 3 director has already drafted the first act for a new game

After launching on Xbox Series X|S in December, Baldur's Gate 3 is now available on all of the platforms Larian had planned for, and it seems studio boss Swen Vincke isn't wasting any time prepping for a new game. Although Vincke has said that a reveal is some time away, he's already "figured out" the first act for the studio's next game, but it's "not what you think." As excitement for Larian's Dungeons & Dragons RPG Baldur's Gate 3 was buzzing in November, Vincke revealed that he was already working on ideas for the studio's next game, and that Baldur's success was "really encouraging us to ensure it pushes many boundaries." Now, Vincke has said that he has already figured out the first act.

"Been a great morning! After 4 months of rewriting and rewriting and abandoning ideas and then revisiting them, finally figured out what act 1 on this thing I've been working on needs to be," Vincke said on X . "Quote me when it's revealed to see how much of today's draft survives.

I suspect a lot." Although Vincke is already talking about the studio's next game, he also points out that the posts aren't a teaser in any way and that any sort of reveal won't happen soon. With the likes of Baldur's Gate and Divinity, Larian likes to create vast worlds filled with possibilities, so we don't expect to hear anything concrete about this next project for a good few years yet.

"That said I haven't shared it with anyone yet so it may be they all think it's bad and then I'll just kill this thread, go sit in a corner with my dog, and pretend none of this happened," Vincke said later on in the thread . "And press CTRL+ENTER and start all over again :) But I think I really like this one.

"Also — it's not what you think, and this is not a teaser for an announcement. Just am genuinely excited about where this is going and wanted to share some of my excitement. It'll be quite some time before we talk about this." As for Larian's current blockbuster game, it's suffered from a rather nasty save bug since launching on Xbox Series X|S late last year, but it looks like Microsoft has located the problem and is now working on a fix .

Hurrah!.
