Announcement that smacks of gauntlet for Baldur’s Gate III: the RPG will be released on the same day as Starfield only on PS5, Sony underlines the frame-rate.

Larian Studios launches the challenge to Starfield, one of the most anticipated role-playing games of the last decade, and does so by bringing forward the release date on PC and placing the one for PS5 – the only console version scheduled at the moment – on its same day . To make matters worse, in what seems to be an epochal challenge between RPGs, a tweet with which PlayStation announced the date, in which it underlines how, contrary to the Starfield one which had been at the center of the controversy precisely in terms of frame- rate, Baldur’s Gate III will run at 60fps.

Baldur’s Gate III New Dates —

In a long press release, Larian announced that Baldur’s Gate III will be available from August 3 on PC (several weeks ahead of the previous date) and that it will arrive on September 6 on PS5, on the same day as Starfield. This seems to be the result of a careful study by PlayStation, given that Starfield will be an exclusive Xbox console and will not arrive on PS5: players who use a Sony console will still have the opportunity to enjoy an excellent RPG from that day, the reasoning seems to be , and a potentially better one from a technical point of view. This is because, unlike the Bethesda RPG, BG3 will run at 60fps.

Double the frame-rate of Starfield —

Baldur’s Gate III “features over 170 hours of footage, more than double the entire length of Game of Thrones, and more than three times the dialogue of all three Lord of the Rings novels combined. It’s a huge, expansive game that truly brings D&D to life, with multiplayer and split-screen co-op, and on a scale that’s about four times that of our previous game, Divinity: Original Sin II.” . “We have always been a studio that aims to publish on as many platforms as possible, in order of availability. We also aimed for the highest possible quality on every platform we published on. We’ve gotten to a point where we’re hitting 60fps on PS5, which is remarkable considering the breadth and depth Baldur’s Gate III is aiming for.” Milestone that was celebrated by a tweet from PlayStation that smacks of a barb: “Baldur’s Gate III arrives on September 6 on PS5 with 60fps”.
