Larian Studios had a hell of a night at 2023’s The Game Awards, notching six wins for Baldur’s Gate 3, including Game of the Year. However, that wasn’t all the Baldur’s Gate 3 news for the night, as Larian Studios took to Twitter shortly after the TGAs to announce that BG3 was now available on the Xbox Series X.

Xbox RPG diehards have been waiting with bated breath for Larian Studios to bring Baldur's Gate 3 to Xbox, following a delay due to splitscreen issues on the Xbox Series S. Larian Studios announced that they were committed to getting Baldur's Gate 3 onto the Xbox platform before the end of the year, but never locked in a precise date, making last night's shadow drop a pleasant surprise for Xbox fans everywhere.
Unfortunately, Baldur's Gate 3 wasn't added to Xbox Game Pass as part of the shadow drop, so fans will have to open up their wallets to jump into the 100+ hour RPG, but we'd definitely consider it to be money well spent.
Baldur's Gate 3 is now available on the PlayStation 5, Windows, macOS, and yes, finally Xbox Series X|S platforms.
