Also Ranks Among The Games With Most GOTY Wins Ever!

Story Highlight
  • Baldur’s Gate is still averaging an impressive 70K players, even 3 years after the launch.
  • Larian’s game was a huge success and among the highest-grossing games of 2023.
  • It also ranks in the top 5 in the list of games with the most GOTY awards ever.

Baldur’s Gate 3 was a huge breakout hit for Larian Studios that broke multiple records and was one of 2023’s highest-grossing games. It even won the Game of the Year award at The Game Awards, and years later, still going strong. 

While it’s far from its ridiculously high 875K peak player count, nearly 3 years since launch, Baldur’s Gate 3 is still averaging an impressive 70K players on Steam. It has a huge player base that is dedicated to the title. 

Why it matters: The impact of Baldur’s Gate 3 was incredible, single-handedly opening the genre to a whole new audience. It even ranks among the top 5 games with the most game of the year wins ever.

Larian’s RPG is still averaging an impressive over 70k players on Steam

Even after almost 3 years of its launch, Baldur’s Gate never really dropped too low. It has even hit over 100K players multiple times in the last couple of months, and still averages a healthy 70K players on Steam. 

This is a rather impressive feat in an industry that tends to be quite cruel at times. Even some recent dedicated live service games like Marathon don’t boast these numbers despite launching just a few days ago.

So, all in all, Baldur’s Gate 3 was a huge phenomenon that has left a massive mark on the gaming industry. It has booked its place among the greatest games of all time, including The Witcher 3, Elden Ring, and others. 

Unfortunately, Larian Entertainment won’t be working on the sequel, so that’s a missed opportunity. However, the good news is that the team has already revealed its next title, Divinity, which will be even more ambitious.
