Apple Might Launch Its Own Smart Home Camera As It Focuses On Providing A More Integrated Product Experience For Its Users

Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories.

Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Baldur’s Gate Franchise to Continue as Wizards of the Coast Talks to ‘Many Partners’

Just as they received the Game of the Year prize at the GDC Awards in San Francisco, the developers of Baldur's Gate 3 announced through Larian CEO Swen Vincke that they wouldn't continue to make a sequel or even DLCs for the acclaimed cRPG. The news certainly took many fans by surprise, especially after the incredible success enjoyed by the game. The question was, then, whether Wizards of the Coast would let the franchise sit for a while or turn to another developer right away. The answer is apparently somewhere in the middle. PC Gamer had the opportunity to speak […]

Baldur’s Gate 3 Wins BAFTA GOTY, Cyberpunk 2077 Gets Evolving Game Award

Baldur's Gate 3 has completed its own Grand Slam of Game of the Year Awards with last night's win at the BAFTA ceremony, following its previous triumphs at The Game Awards, Golden Joystick, New York Game Awards, DICE Awards, NAVGTR Awards, Steam, GDC Awards, and our own Awards. Larian's cRPG masterpiece also brought home three additional BAFTA prizes (Narrative, Music, and Performer in a Supporting Role for Andrew Wincott's Raphael performance) and the EE Players’ Choice Award voted by the public.

Baldur’s Gate 3 Developer Will Likely Use Early Access Again for Its Next Title

The news that Baldur's Gate 3 will not receive a sequel from the developer Larian disappointed several fans. Still, the studio is reportedly working on a new title, which will also be released in early access first. In an interview with Game File, Larian's head of publishing Michael Douse disclosed that Larian has something "cooking" for its fans in terms of the studio's follow-up plan. Douse also revealed that it is going to be an early access one. The development team used early access for their last three games (Divinity: Original Sin, Divinity: Original Sin 2, and Baldur's Gate 3) […]

Baldur’s Gate 3 Was Supposed to Let You Visit Hell, the Gith Plane, and Turn Ketheric Thorm

Baldur's Gate 3 featured a lot of absolutely epic moments throughout the course of its long and satisfying storyline, but as with any game, some great ideas were unfortunately cut in in the final version. Speaking to IGN at the Game Developers Conference 2024, Larian Studios founder and game director Swen Vincke revealed that Ketheric Thorm, the first of the three main villains in Baldur's Gate 3, was originally supposed to be redeemable by players. Indeed, the dialogue in the final game leans toward that direction, but at the very end, it doesn't follow through. It's a shame, as it […]

Larian CEO Clarifies Wizards of the Coast Was a a Great Licensor and Had Nothing to Do With BG4 Not Happening

Larian CEO Swen Vincke certainly surprised many Baldur's Gate 3 fans when he revealed at GDC 2024 that, despite the incredible commercial success and critical acclaim, there would not be a sequel or a DLC, as the studio was moving on from Dungeons & Dragons altogether. When the news first hit the Web, speculation arose that Wizards of the Coast, the owner of D&D and therefore Baldur's Gate, was somehow to blame for the split. However, the Larian boss quickly set the record straight on Twitter, saying that they had nothing to do with it. Reading the Reddit threads, I […]

Baldur’s Gate 3 Reportedly Sold 15 Million Copies; Vincke Hopes Next-Gen Tech Will Bring His Dream RPG Closer

Around a month ago, Larian's Michael Douse revealed that Baldur's Gate 3 had sold 'way over' 10 million units. In a new interview with Gamespot from GDC 2024, Larian CEO Swen Vincke provided an updated sales figure by comparing the studio's latest game from the previous one, Divinity: Original Sin 2. It's almost double D:OS 2 now, so it's really doing really, really well. As pointed out on ResetEra by user Son of Sparda, last time we heard, the most recent installment in the Divinity franchise had sold 7.5 million units. As such, it is reasonable to assume Baldur's Gate […]

Needless to say, Baldur’s Gate 3 has been a success beyond anybody’s wildest expectations, racking of GOTY awards and over 10 million in sales, so what’s next for the game’s developer Larian Studios? More content for Baldur’s Gate 3 followed by Baldur’s Gate 4, right? Strike while the iron’s hot! Well, about that… at a GDC 2024 panel, Larian CEO Swen Vincke made the surprising announcement that the company is moving on from Baldur’s Gate, Dungeons & Dragons, and the Forgotten Realms setting. That is to say, they aren’t making Baldur’s Gate 4 and there won’t even be any major […]
