Baldur’s Gate 3 will not be available on the Nintendo Switch 2 for the foreseeable future, according to comments made by Larian Studios' CEO, Swen Vicke, during a Reddit AMA. He noted that the decision to not port the game was not made by their team, suggesting that either Nintendo or Wizards of the Coast, the owner of the Dungeons and Dragons franchise, may be involved in this outcome.
Rumors have emerged indicating possible tensions between Larian Studios and Wizards of the Coast. Additionally, Larian's technical director, Bert van Semmertier, mentioned that they recently launched Divinity: Original Sin 2 on the Switch 2 and expressed enthusiasm about the platform for future projects.
While there is a possibility that Wizards of the Coast could enlist another studio to create a port later, no plans have been confirmed. Larian Studios previously announced it would not produce any significant updates or sequels for Baldur’s Gate 3, further complicating the situation for fans hoping for a Switch 2 release.
