Larian Studios outdid themselves with Baldur’s Gate 3, and that showed with all the awards that the game won. However, the developer isn’t settling, and they want their next project to raise the bar for the RPG genre further.

Why it matters: The studio is wrapping up the development of Baldur’s Gate 3 since they have decided not to work on any DLCs or additional content.

Back in July, CEO Swen Vincke revealed that the work on their next game was set to begin soon. The team is in high spirits and is looking forward to the new journey. Talking to IGN, he commented further about their next project.

The quality bar was set high by BG3, so we are wrapping our heads around how to raise it even higher.

Because Baldur’s Gate 3 was so big, the expectations from the team are now higher than ever. However, the studio is focused on doing its best and wants to see the previous success reflected in the next project.

Vincke explained that the scope of Baldur’s Gate 3 was something very new for the team. Because of this, some mistakes were made during development. However, now that they’ve learned from those mistakes, they don’t want to repeat the errors.

Baldur’s Gate 3 set many new records in the gaming industry. It is the only game that has won the Game Of The Year award at every major event. Therefore, the bar has been set very high, and Larian wants to make sure it sets a new bar.

We know for sure that the developer’s next project isn’t Baldur’s Gate 4.

They also revealed they want to work on an ultimate RPG, but that isn’t possible before the PS6. Therefore, with all the excitement around these projects, it’ll be very interesting to see what Larian comes up with next.
