A vexing save issue affecting numerous players of Baldur’s Gate 3 on the Xbox platform is set to be addressed with an upcoming update, providing a definitive solution to the firmware problem. Despite the surprise launch of Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox during The Game Awards, the official announcement was initially intended for the Game of the Year speech. However, due to time constraints, the reveal was only communicated through a Tweet from Larian Studios.
Despite the anticipation from Xbox fans, the wait ensued as Larian and Microsoft worked on implementing splitscreen functionality on the Series S to ensure both versions were identical. Unfortunately, the Xbox release of Baldur’s Gate 3 encountered a save deletion bug, causing players to lose their progress. Both Microsoft and Larian diligently addressed the issue, offering temporary workarounds and firmware updates. According to a recent Tweet, players can now anticipate a specific date for the resolution.
