An official Baldur\u2019s Gate 2<\/a> remake is reportedly in the works at Wizards of the Coast.<\/p>\n

PC Gamer<\/a> reported that it is likely that BioWare\u2019s Baldur\u2019s Gate 1 and 2 will both get remakes ahead of the release of Baldur\u2019s Gate 4. The publication said former BioWare developer and Baldur’s Gate 2 co-lead designer Kevin Martens is working on the remake. There\u2019s the suggestion both remakes will launch together.<\/p>\n

Wizards of the Coast parent company Hasbro told IGN: “We do not comment on speculation or rumor.”<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

The big question here, assuming the report is true, revolves around the scope of the remakes. It seems unlikely we\u2019ll be getting Baldur\u2019s Gate 1 and 2 remade in the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/a> style, given how long it would take to convert the thousands of hours of content both games offer combined into something in-keeping with Larian\u2019s role-playing masterpiece.<\/p>\n

Perhaps Hasbro views remakes as a stop-gap between the phenomenally successful Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and the inevitable sequel, which has astronomical fan expectation to navigate. With Larian leaving Baldur\u2019s Gate and indeed Dungeons & Dragons behind to make the next Divinity game, there are big shoes to fill \u2014 perhaps the biggest in video games.<\/p>\n

Baldur\u2019s Gate was BioWare\u2019s second game, releasing on PC in 1998 and published by Interplay. It did well enough to spawn a sequel, 2000\u2019s Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn, which like its predecessor took place in the Forgotten Realms. Both original games use an isometric perspective and pausable real-time gameplay, with the player controlling up to six characters. Could the remakes follow Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s lead and go for fully turn-based combat? Or maybe a hybrid system is in order.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

There\u2019s plenty going on in the world of Baldur\u2019s Gate, despite the long wait for a sequel. There\u2019s a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 HBO TV show in the works, one that will continue the story from the game \u2014 much to the surprise of fans. There\u2019s even a prequel novel depicting Astarion\u2019s time in servitude to the Vampire Lord Cazador Szarr<\/a>, an official Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 cookbook, and a coloring book.<\/p>\n
