Baldur’s Gate 3 release date speculation
While gamers eagerly await the release date of Baldur's Gate 3, there is a release window in sight. Larian Studios' CEO, Roderick Van Brakel, assures fans that the game is progressing well but faces technical challenges and quality control issues, which delayed the initial release window in 2020.
In a recent tweet, Van Brakel disclosed that the game is playable from start to finish, with approximately 30-40 hours of gameplay currently available. However, the developers are still polishing and refining the game before its official release.

In a video shared on Van Brakel's Twitter account, he revealed that the team has completed all 174 hours of cinematics in the game and is now focused on finalizing the rest of the game. While the playable portion of the game offers a decent length, it currently ends at level 5. Without direct access to the development team, it is challenging to predict the exact release date. However, it is possible that the game will align with the release window or come very close to it.
Van Brakel also confirmed that more gameplay footage will be released in the future, although an exact timeline has not been provided.
