Larian Expresses Interest in Baldur’s Gate 3 on Switch 2, but Decision Lies with Wizards of the Coast

Amidst ongoing fan interest in a potential Baldur’s Gate 3 port for the rumored Nintendo Switch 2, Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke addressed the issue directly during a Reddit Q&A. Vincke stated that a Switch 2 version is not in Larian’s current plans because the decision rests with Wizards of the Coast, the rights holder for Baldur’s Gate and Dungeons & Dragons. “We’d have loved to do it, but it wasn’t our call,” Vincke said, implying that Wizards of the Coast could potentially hire another studio to develop the port, despite the technical challenges Larian faced when adapting the game for Xbox Series S. With the collaboration concluded, Larian is now focused on developing its own Divinity IP. Journalist Natethehate, known for Nintendo-related leaks, reported that a Baldur’s Gate 3 version for Switch 2 was not in development as of late last year. Vincke’s statements support this, suggesting no secret plans are currently in progress.

In related news, a senior member of the Baldur’s Gate 3 team is joining CD Projekt Red (The Witcher series), while Larian Studios is developing a new project said to be even larger in scope than Baldur’s Gate 3. This new game will seemingly feature a desert statue in its design, potentially hinting at its setting or themes. Larian has not yet announced release details. Separately, during the same Reddit Q&A, Larian developers discussed their evolving strategy regarding generative AI and mentioned considering a Divinity game for the Nintendo Switch 2 instead of Baldur’s Gate 3. Vincke alluded to an “unhealthy relationship” between Larian and Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast, which makes a future collaboration on Baldur’s Gate 3 even less likely.
