Baldur’s Gate 3: Xbox Series S improvements also benefit other systems

The wait for the Xbox version of Baldur’s Gate 3 continues, but everyone can finally benefit from the wait.

Among other things, an Xbox Series S version of the game is in the works and there has recently been significant progress in optimization.

Benefits for everyone?

On X (formerly Twitter), Larian founder and CEO Swen Finke posted screenshots showing the development studio’s progress.

Although he didn’t go into the exact procedure, the images show that RAM and VRAM usage may be severely limited. Finky is convinced that other platforms can benefit from it as well.

Got a nice gift from our engineers. Making sure memory was well under control and having a peak buffer was the main thing holding us back, and I think this will benefit all platforms as well. There’s still some work left but it’s pretty close now. pic.twitter.com/xvtUDPFebo

There are still the odd issues with frame drops in certain areas on PC and PS5, so further improvements would be very welcome.

There is still no release date for Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox. Recently, there have been speculations about its release in December.
