Forget Baldur's Gate 4, BG3's Sequel Will Need A Brand New Setting To Achieve The Same Level Of Success

To this day, Baldur's Gate 3 stands as one of the most popular CRPGs to date, introducing countless players into the genre and fantastical world of Dungeons & Dragons. While I was more than a little excited at the prospect of Baldur's Gate 3's release when it was first revealed 5 years ago, the level of success was unprecedented for both the series and the genre. Offering an excellent mix of accessibility, high-quality game design, and stunning visuals, it's unlikely that an impending Baldur's Gate 4 will come close to reaching its legacy anytime soon.
