Larian is moving away from Dungeons & Dragons and Baldur's Gate for its next project, but CEO Swen Vincke says the studio had made a start on Baldur's Gate 3 DLC and was even thinking about a proper sequel before the final decision was made.

Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut will officially hit PC on May 16.
The package will include the base game, the Iki Island expansion, and the multiplayer Legends mode. The PC version is being built in collaboration between developer Sucker Punch Productions and venerable port house Nixxes Software. It will mark the first PC release for a Sucker Punch game in the studio's entire 26-year history.
On PC, Ghost of Tsushima will support ultrawide monitors and is "fully optimized" for 21:9 and 32:9 setups. It will also let you go all the way up to a 48:9 triple monitor display. You'll be able to boost your frame rates—which can be unlocked—with GPU tech like Nvidia DLSS3 or AMD FSR 3. There are additional customizable mouse and keyboard controls alongside "extensive" controller support, including full haptics if you use a DualSense.
"We’re proud to announce that our friends and partners over at Nixxes are bringing Ghost of Tsushima to PC," Sucker Punch co-founder Brian Fleming says on the PlayStation Blog. "This is a first for Sucker Punch – all our previous work is console-exclusive, so we are excited about all this and Nixxes was the right team to do this project. With them on board, we knew the results would be nothing short of amazing! Now excuse me as I go order a Super Ultra Wide monitor!"
Sucker Punch got its start back in 1997, releasing the cult classic N64 platformer Rocket: Robot on Wheels through Ubisoft back in 1999. It would follow up Rocket with the Sly Cooper series, published by Sony on the PS2. The Sony partnership continued into the PS3 era with Infamous, and it was around this time that Sucker Punch was acquired to become a PlayStation studio. And indeed, in all that time, not a single one of those games ever made it to PC.
Now Sucker Punch is known mostly as the Ghost of Tsushima studio, and with nearly four years passed since the launch of that game, fans have eagerly been awaiting word of the developers' next project. Rumors of Ghost of Tsushima 2 have been circulating for years, but we'll just have to wait and see what the future has in store.

One of the earliest entries in Nintendo's beloved turn-based strategy series, Advance Wars, has finally gotten the English translation it's deserved for 33 years.
Earlier this month, a demo for action-RPG Stellar Blade hit the PlayStation Store and was pulled moments later, but now weeks later Sony has finally confirmed that the real launch of that demo is coming very soon.
Stellar Blade's demo is returning to PS5 after it was added and then quickly removed from the PS store earlier this month. It seems that the initial release of the demo was accidental. This time, it's been officially announced by Sony, rather than shadowdropped without any fanfare.
Super Mario Maker players have finally done it - they've beaten every single legitimate level uploaded to the original game before the servers shut down. The catch is that they already achieved victory last week, and they're only now able to celebrate the accomplishment after the creator of the last level standing came forward to reveal that it was a fake.
Now Princess Peach: Showtime is out, it's time to talk about the feel-good comeback of an old-school director we've got thanks to the studio behind it.
With more than 61 million copies sold, Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the best-selling titles of all time, but good luck getting it to run on your PS5 any better than the resolution and frame rate designed for its original PS4 edition. For years now, fans have been begging Rockstar to give the open worlder an update to make it run a bit better on Sony's current console — as it does on Xbox Series X — and as an unexpected patch actually does arrive 18 months after the last one, of course there's no sign of current-gen support.
14 years after launch and five years after expiring music licenses forced it off of digital stores, Obsidian's Alpha Protocol is back online with some modern upgrades to give the cult classic spy RPG a second life.
It will be a while longer until PC players can enjoy God of War Ragnarok, according to rumors circulating online.
On March 7, EA shadow dropped a host of classic PC games on Steam, including pretty much the entire Command & Conquer series. That's good news - unless you're one of the indie devs who released a game the very same day and suddenly had to compete with decades worth of nostalgia amid the notorious whims of the Steam algorithm.
The title of "hardest Mario level ever made" will be a topic of debate for far better platformer players than me, but one very strong contender looks like the final roadblock for the Super Mario Maker fans who are rushing to beat every single level before the servers go down.
A prototype of Free Radical's canceled FPS sequel TimeSplitters 4 has been found and preserved online, all thanks to one observant collector who spotted a tiny detail in what seemed like an unremarkable eBay listing for a PS3 test console.
