In an interview with IGN, Vincke was requested whether or not Xbox had tried to pay Larian to get Baldur’s Gate 3 onto Sport Cross, to which he replied, “Oh, we all the time stated from the get-go, it wasn’t going to be on Sport Cross, it is not going to be on Sport Cross.”
Vincke then added: “We made a giant sport, so I feel there is a truthful worth to be paid for that, and I feel that that’s okay. We do not cost you any micro-transactions on prime of it, so that you get what you pay for. Upfront, it is a huge meaty sport. So I feel that ought to have the ability to exist as it’s. That is what permits us to proceed making different video games.”
Contemplating Baldur’s Gate 3’s spectacular debut place in our newest Xbox Gameplay Chart (which had solely been on sale for a number of days earlier than the chart’s publishing), it is clear that Vincke is correct and that Larian does not want Sport Cross to get Xbox gamers on board.
That being stated, there have been a few teething points with the RPG on Xbox. A nasty save bug has been wiping Xbox gamers’ Baldur’s Gate 3 save recordsdata, which has left each Larian and Xbox scrambling to give you a repair. Hopefully, a correct repair might be rolled out quickly, and we are able to all return to popping these Baldur’s Gate 3 achievements.
