Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Baldur's Gate 4

Larian Studios is now making the game engine supporting D&D 5E rules so it's very likely they will continue to produce more D&D games after BG3.

Since BG 3 will be level capped at about level 12 or so it's not unlikely there will be an expansion or two after BG 3 using the same characters you had in BG 3. Maybe the final expansion will let your characters get all the way to level 20.

BG 4 (or another independent game story) will probably depend on how well BG 3 and its expansions sell.

Larian Studios probably have a contract with Wizards of the Coast to produce a certain amount of D&D games using the WotC license. This deal could probably be extended if WotC are happy with the games being produced. So there is definitely a chance we will see Larian Studios producing DnD games for quite a few years. I think I read somewhere that Larian Studios had a contract for making up to 5 DnD games using the WotC license, but I may be wrong.

As a rule of thumb i think we could expect one expansion a year after the release of BG 3 and maybe another the year after that again. Then maybe BG 4 4-5 years or so from the release of BG 3.
