There’s a new Baldur’s Gate in development

The developer behind the Enhanced Editions of the first two Baldur’s Gate games is to release a new title in the series.

It’s called Adventure Y and takes place between the events of the first two games and in fact uses the same engine – Infinity.

This year, the eagerly anticipated Adventure Y will finally navigate the dark underground caverns of development and venture out into the Sword Coast,” developer Beamdog said.

Keep an eye on the Beamblog in late spring for announcements regarding the content and release date of Adventure Y. We have an exciting release planned for this game, something bigger than we’ve ever done before.”

So what of Baldur’s Gate 3?

We’d be lying if we said we never think about doing a Baldur’s Gate III game, so we won’t say that,” the studio added. But we will say there’s nothing in the works yet regarding BGIII or a 5th edition game. That doesn’t mean the opportunity will never arise, though.”
