Mind. Flayed.

Evidence is mounting for aBaldur’s Gate 3release date getting announced before the month is out. Better yet, that drop date (if we do in fact get one) could be before 2020 ends. Larian have already teased, well, something happening in February. Larian’s CEO Swen Vincke’s been doing thevaguetweeting thing. Now, Google have accidentally slipped up, mentioningBaldur’s Gate 3on a list of Stadia games coming in 2020. It’s a lot of conjecture but heck, let me spin you the yarn.
If you believe a silly goof-up over at Google Stadia was an earnest cat-out-of-the-bag mistake and not a full on misspeaking, Baldur’s Gate 3 may be out this year. One would hope so, given it was announced something like eight months ago and 2020 has yet more months than that left in it, but I’ve seen enough large games delayed early this year to take nothing for granted.
In acommunity blog post, Stadia include Baldur’s Gate 3 in a list of games that we, apparently, are already excited to play on Google’s streaming service this year.
“You’re already looking forward to DOOM Eternal, Get Packed, Orcs Must Die! 3, Baldur’s Gate 3 and many more games coming to Stadia this year.”

Earlier this month, Larian’s CEO Swen Vincketweeted aboutplaying Baldur’s Gate 3 while sitting in an airport, which you’d think means that the game is quite far along in development—given that it’s somewhat road ready. Information’s otherwise been scant as Larian keep their heads down working on those mind flayers we saw in the original teaser trailer.
In January, Larianreleased a teaser development reelwith the claim “something is brewing” and the date of February 27th, 2020. So we already knowsomenews is on the way, but that’s the only thing that’s come straight from the horse’s mouth as it were.
