BREAKING NEWS: Baldur’s Gate 3 has received its third consecutive nomination for Best Community Support at The Game Awards, just announced today. This recognition from Larian Studios has left its developers both surprised and thrilled, underscoring the game’s strong relationship with its dedicated fanbase.
The official Baldur’s Gate 3 Twitter account celebrated the nomination, stating, “It’s a complete honour to have been nominated for Best Community Support again this year, but really, this nomination is a testament to your continued passion and enthusiasm for Baldur’s Gate 3.” The developers expressed their gratitude to players, highlighting the significance of this milestone.
Originally launched on PC in August 2023, Baldur’s Gate 3 has not only captivated audiences but also achieved remarkable success, winning the 2023 Game of the Year title alongside multiple other awards, including Best Performance for Neil Newbon as Astarion, Best RPG, Best Multiplayer, Player’s Voice, and Best Community Support.
Last year, it clinched the award for Best Community Support again, showcasing its commitment to player engagement and development. With this new nomination for 2025, it faces tough competition from fellow nominees including Final Fantasy 14, Fortnite, Helldivers 2, and No Man’s Sky. However, given its history of success against these contenders, Larian Studios has a solid chance of winning once more.
Despite releasing its final content update, Patch #8, in April 2024, which introduced major features such as cross-play and 12 new subclasses, Larian is not stepping back. The studio continues to enhance the game with ongoing bug fixes and quality-of-life updates. The latest, Hotfix #34, launched in September 2024, brought a native version of Baldur’s Gate 3 for Steam Deck users, demonstrating Larian’s unwavering support for its community.
As the excitement builds, fans are encouraged to cast their votes for the Best Community Support award on The Game Awards website now. With the nominations freshly announced, the stakes have never been higher for Baldur’s Gate 3. Can they secure a third straight win? The gaming community will be eagerly watching.
