When will we finally get to go hands-on with Baldur’s Gate 3? Larian Studios initially staked out August for the game’s early access release, but with the month now more than half gone, it’s pretty clear that’s no longer happening. Thankfully, Larian provided fans with a new date today during their “Panel From Hell” livestream – September 30. Or possibly early October. As usual, Larian’s CEO Swen Vincke gave himself some wiggle room, as he wants to give his team enough time to properly optimize the beta, but development is “looking okay” and he’s optimistic they can hit the September launch date.

In addition to the early access release date, Larian also provided an extended look at the game’s opening cinematic, and some new quick gameplay snippets, including a gruesome interaction with an Intellect Devourer – a monstrous living brain that party member Lae'zel literally rips out of somebody’s bloody skull. Jump to 29:15 mark in the video below for the extended intro cinematic, and 56:00 mark for the Intellect Devourer grossness. Of course, plenty of other ground is also covered during the panel, so check the whole thing out if you have 90 minutes to spare.
