Larian Studios, the team behind the hit game Baldur’s Gate 3, revealed they’ll be staying quiet while working on their next project. Although they’re planning to release Patch 8 for Baldur’s Gate 3 later this year, most of their energy is now focused on developing their new game.
Swen Vincke, the head of Larian Studios, shared some thoughts on social media about the team’s success with Baldur’s Gate 3. In a statement to VideoGamer, the studio confirmed that their developers are now fully focused on creating a brand-new game.
Got me all nostalgic – it really has been a incredible journey so far. But the story ain't over yet. Stay tuned. Going to try to skip the dark night of the soul moment though if you don't mind. https://t.co/eLSTv3CXb4

The details about Larian’s next game are still unclear, but we do know a few things. It won’t be another Dungeons & Dragons game or a sequel to Baldur’s Gate 3, as the team wasn’t too keen on making a direct follow-up. Back in November 2023, Swen Vincke shared his excitement, saying their next game will take gaming creativity to a new level.
Larian Studios has hinted at revisiting their popular Divinity: Original Sin series in the future. In July 2023, Swen Vincke acknowledged how important this franchise is and assured fans they’ll come back to it someday. He also stressed that, after the hard work their 400-person team put into Baldur’s Gate 3, they need some time to recharge creatively before diving into another big project.
Gamers are filled with guesses about what Larian’s next project might be. Since the studio is known for making great fantasy RPGs, many wonder if they’ll try something different, like a sci-fi or modern-day setting. There’s no word yet on when the new game will be ready, so fans might have to wait a while to find out more.
Larian Studios has a solid history of creating top-notch games, which is why fans are so curious about what they’ll do next, even though they’re keeping quiet right now. With their focus on fresh ideas and creativity, their next game is expected to offer something new and exciting for players everywhere.
