Baldur’s Gate 3 Physical Editions For PlayStation And Xbox Delayed; Fourth Disc Added On Xbox
Estimated reading time: 2 minutes
The physical edition of Baldur’s Gate III for PlayStation and Xbox has been delayed a bit. Larian Studios has announced that the physical edition for console is now expected to start shipping between April and May. The company wanted to get these out the door sooner, but “production issues” led to a slight delay.
Also of note, Larian announced that the physical Xbox version of Baldur’s Gate III will now come on four discs instead of three. This is to provide the “full game” as a physical copy, Larian said, adding, “Yes, it is that big.” The PS5 edition comes on two discs.
“While we don’t expect any further delays, we will continue to keep you updated on when console versions are ready,” Larian said.
Additionally, Larian notified fans that the PC Deluxe Edition–which includes lots of physical and digital goodies–is now shopping. Everyone who preordered any of these upcoming physical editions for PC or console are advised to check their emails for shipping details.

After periods of early access, Baldur’s Gate III was officially released in August 2023 on PC, followed by debuts on PlayStation in September, and Xbox in December. The game was a smash hit commercially and also racked up numerous awards, including GameSpot’s Game of the Year in 2023.
Many are very eager to find out what Larian is going to make next. We don’t know what it will be just yet, but Larian’s top boss has already figured out the game’s first act.
