Is Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox Game Pass and PS Plus

Baldur’s Gate 3 is been rated as the best game of 2023(according to The Game Awards), and the developer’s Larian Studios are very well aware of their offering’s stature. Many were curious whether the game will be available to play on Xbox Pass and PS Plus or not. There are still many questions around the matter for some people. But in some interviews, the developers did talk about this in detail.

If you are someone who owns an Xbox Pass or PS Plus subscription, and you are wondering whether you can play Baldur’s Gate 3 with it or not, this article will help you out. Here, we have listed out everything that we know about the game’s release on Xbox Pass and PS Plus. So, without any further ado, let’s get into it.

Is Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox Game Pass and PS Plus?

Larian Studios boss Sven Vincke in an interview with IGN revealed details about this querry. He said, “We made a big game, so I think there’s a fair price to be paid for that, and I think that that is okay,” he said. “We don’t charge you any micro-transactions on top of it, so you get what you pay for. Upfront it’s a big meaty game. So I think that should be able to exist as it is. This is what allows us to continue making other games.”

When asked what the developers would do if Microsoft approached the team for a Game Pass proposition, he said, “Oh, we always said from the get-go, it wasn’t going to be on Game Pass, it’s not going to be on Game Pass.”So it is quite evident that we won’t be seeing the game on Xbox’s subscription plan. The developers are aware of their game’s popularity, and they want to gather as much revenue as possible without giving the game out to any subscription service.

With the PS Plus, things are a bit different, though. You still can’t play the entire game of Baldur’s Gate 3 on your PlayStation with a PS Plus subscription, but the developers did make it possible for the PS Plus subscribers to try out the game as a demo. Any PS Plus can thus try the first two hours of the game for free. To play the full title and try out all the endings of the game, which in total results in somewhat 100 hours, a user has to buy a digital copy of the game.
