The highly successful and critically acclaimed fantasy RPGBaldur’s Gate 3is getting its own physical deluxe edition, filled with all sorts of goodies as well as disks for the game itself.
In addition to a physical copy of the game, this new edition contains a soundtrack on three disks, a 60 x 180 cm world map, a pair of patches, 32 stickers, and a gorgeous 57 x 69 cm Mind Flayer poster. The product also covers all of the content from the Digital Deluxe edition, too. This includes a digital version of the soundtrack, a digital artbook, and digital character sheets compatible withDungeons & Dragons- the tabletop RPGupon whichBaldur’s Gate 3is based.
The new edition is slated for release in the first quarter of 2024 according to developerLarian Studios' website. The box is available for $79.99 if you’re in the US, while shoppers in Europe and Oceania will be set back €79.99. For the benefit of readers in the UK or Australia, this amounts to roughly £70 or AU$134 at time of writing.
As Larian Studios put it on itsstore page: “The multi-award winning RPGBaldur’s Gate 3released to the mortal plane. Fill your mantelpiece with feelies while you fill your heart with adventure.”
We were very impressed withBaldur’s Gate 3here at TRG. From the game’splayful encouragement of lateral thinkingto itscinematic reimagining of the classic CRPG style, we’ve sunk hundreds of collective hours into Larian Studios' sprawling RPG and show no signs of stopping.
For those still looking to get into the game, as well as fanswho’ve been patiently waitingfor anXbox Series X|S release, this looks like a fantastic point of entry. Die-hard fans may also find themselves tempted. Despite already owning a PC version, it’s looking perilously likely that I’ll grab the physical deluxe edition for my ownPS5, if only to get my hands on that gorgeous world map.
