I don't believe that were all of them, though I don't think an exact number have been confirmed either. Closest I can think of is recent RPS video on the game. In it it is mention that each companion is written by seperate writer, except from a closely tied pair which is written by the same person. So, does anyone know how many writers are working on BG3?

Keep in mind that it is a coop game - "companions" act as NPC and PC - if you can pick any of them as your character they need to appear at the start of the adventure. Possibly some of them could pop up later if player doesn't pick them as their PC.
