No Rest for the Wicked, the Diablo-esque action RPG in the works at Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps studio Moon, won't be $70. CEO Thomas Mahler says the game's price point is down to the nature of the team, their shared stance on the rising price of games, and the notable lack of shareholders pawing at the company's books.

22.03.2024 - 13:05 / eurogamer.net / Swen Vincke
Larian Studios won't be making any expansions for Baldur's Gate 3, but the developer isn't quite done with the game yet.
Following Larian founder Swen Vincke's GDC talk yesterday, in which he confirmed the company would not make Baldur's Gate 4 or any BG3 expansions, Vincke took to social media platform X to talk more about the studio's future with BG3 and clarify its future plans.
«I understand there will be disappointment because people fell in love with what we created,» Vincke said of the popular RPG, «but it was a story with a beginning, middle and an end and it doesn't need more». Baldur's Gate 3 and its characters «now belong to [Dungeons & Dragons owner Wizards of the Coast],» he said, adding he thinks the properties will be «treated with respect».
