Larian Studios will releaseBaldur’s Gate III forXbox Series in 2023, the developer confirmed.

The Xbox Series version will feature split-screencooperative play when played onXbox Series X, but not when played on Xbox Series S. Cross-save progression between Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Steam will also be available.

Larian Studiospreviously said it planned on bringingBaldur’s Gate III to Xbox Series, but was held back by technical issues—particularly getting split-screen cooperative play to run on Xbox Series S, as Microsoft requires feature parity for Xbox Series games. In other words, a game cannot lack a feature on Xbox Series S that is available on Xbox Series X.

“Super happy to confirm that after meeting [Microsoft Gaming boss Phil Spencer] yesterday, we’ve found a solution that allows us to bringBaldur’s Gate III to Xbox players this year still, something we’ve been working towards for quite some time,” Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke said in atweet.

Hecontinued, “All improvements will be there, with split-screen co-op on Series X. Series S will not feature split-screen co-op, but will also include cross-save progression between Steam and Xbox Series.”

Baldur’s Gate III launched for PC and Mac viaSteam andGOG on August 3, and is due out for PlayStation 5 on September 6.
