RPGs come in a variety of shapes and styles, and one of the most robust renditions of the genre is the Crpg (computer role-playing game). Due to their complexity, these games usually require the precise control schemes and expanded input options you can only get on computers (hence the on-the-nose genre name). However, developers have gotten much better at translating CRPGs over to consoles, which allows many games that previously would have been PC exclusives to jump to more platforms. Baldur’s Gate 3 is one such upcoming title.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is the latest Crpg by Larian Studios, the company behind the Divinity series. As you can probably guess by the title, Baldur’s Gate 3 is the sequel to Baldur’s Gate 2, which is one of the greatest RPGs of all time. Given Larian’s pedigree (and what everyone has experienced so far), Baldur’s Gate 3 is being widely hailed as a must-play RPG.
