No, Baldur's Gate 3 Doesn't Have a New PS5 Release Date

Some "push" on for this game eh.

Would this “new” date relate to the early access with the digital deluxe version?

@ShogunRok "(while Digital Deluxe Edition early access begins 72 hours earlier, on the 3rd August)"

I believe you meant September 3rd, not August.

3rd of August early access ,really ?😂 seems the ps app isn't the only one,with problems with dates.

@fido I definitely did. Guess the new release date was right after all!

@ShogunRok well you read it here first at push square😅

I got an email about it too, though still September 6th

Sony also sent an email a little earlier with "new launch date" right in the header, very confusing.

Yeah I got an email too saying new date lol

@kyleforrester87 People hyping up a game is putting you off? Why? Other people liking the game is not a good thing?

@VanguardKaiser Thought about it but it just seems to be them making sure as many people as possible know what the release date is. Like comments above have said, Sony sent out an email with the same information, so I think the "new" is either a mistake — maybe this marketing was put together a while back and delayed — or a cheeky way of getting people to look (likely the former).

@kyleforrester87

Think it's bad here PCGamer has literally dozens of BG3 articles although there's a funny one today where the author breaks the game by respeccing the party to 4 rangers summoning their bears and just having the bears wander about as a party.

Quite amusing.

Wonder if Larian has finally confirmed the date and now it's locked into the SKU.

Who knows, I got an email and push notification from the PS app and I was worried that the date had slipped.

Its 2nd of September for the Digital Deluxe Edition so it says on the ps store & on my pre order. 3 days early access !!

I still need to play the Divinity games in my backlog before I think about buying this. Sounds great though.

Who would have thought that Xboxs lack of foresight regarding Series S would lead to Playstation actually having a monster "exclusive" rpg in BG3 to compete for your free time Against Starfield

@kyleforrester87 It seems odd to be surprised that Push Square is extensively covering one of the most successful gamer friendly releases of the year thus far.

I mean it is just weeks before its PS5 release. Seems like the common time to hype something up, especially with it being nearly universally applauded via its pc release and very little at all coming from the first party front or Sony in general for most of the year now.

To be honest if people are thinking that's too much hype about BG3 on the converse side with less than a month to go for Starfield there's practically nothing.

Not sure if Bethesda thinks that there's no point in marketing but for me that's a huge red flag it's almost like their not going to make any promise they can't keep.

Anyway loving BG3 and even impressed with a day 1 hot fix of 150 bugs.

No other company can claim that you can't release a game in a working state.

@deathaxe I had that spell in Pathfinder wotr. It turned my whole party into bears. Was fun for a bit, but pathfinder was brutal if you were not optimized.

First full priced game I ever bothered getting on steam since I like the flexibility of playing such a massive game anywhere, otherwise I know I could never finish it.

@Nyne11Tyme Does this make you happy?

@deathaxe it’s Bethesda and the hype behind Starfield is unreal. They absolutely do need to over market the game. The previous show did wonders to build up hype, we’ll probably see some more stuff soon.

I’m waiting to see how the console version plays. I know this type of game is suited to keyboard and mouse play so I want to see how it plays with controller. Wish it had keyboard and mouse support as an option.

Let’s see….
