Yeah, it makes more sense that way. I couldn't believe it works from disk.
They should have waited a little while longer as they worked on the Series S version... prob could have figured out how to get them all on single disc.
Oh Larian is totally ripping us off...but as it's one of the best RPGs in years, they can (probably) afford to.This will be my first physical game on Xbox Series X. Quite likely the only one I ever get, but seems like a pretty good deal, even with the steep shipping charge.
Why is it 2 discs on PS5 and 3 on XSX? Did I miss something?
My guess would be the XSS version is so different from XSX that it basically is practically a different game, requiring a lot of smaller adapted assets. (Edit: totally forgot that the S has no drive so that thought is nonsense /e)Why is it 2 discs on PS5 and 3 on XSX? Did I miss something?
Xbox don't make 100GB discs while Playstation do.Why is it 2 discs on PS5 and 3 on XSX? Did I miss something?
3 dicks... For xbox..
Guess I'm answering myself XD. Physical release is exclusive to their store.
Most likely meaning no updates. I think any XSX or XS game NEEDS to be installed because of how the system needs the SSDYeah, it makes more sense that way. I couldn't believe it works from disk.
This thread is so god damn hard to find that I have to google it. That said, Larian has provided an update on the build version that will be shipped on the disc(s):
First FF7 Rebirth and now this. Era of 2 disk PS5 games getting started?
Isn't Forbidden West the "whatever the complete edition is called" two discs as well?First FF7 Rebirth and now this. Era of 2 disk PS5 games getting started?

Deluxe Edition Shipping Update!
Pre-orders for the @baldursgate3 PC Deluxe Edition are now shipping, with console editions expected to begin shipping between April and May.
We wanted to get the console versions into the hands of players earlier, however, production issues have meant that shipping dates have been pushed back slightly.
Those waiting for their Xbox version will now receive 4 physical discs, rather than the 3 originally planned, so that we can provide the full game as a physical copy.
(Yes, it is that big).
While we don't expect any further delays, we will continue to keep you updated on when console versions are ready.
To find out when your pre-order will ship, please keep an eye on your emails!
