<p>Larian Studios, the team behind last year’s <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/product/baldurs-gate-3″>Baldur’s Gate 3</a>, has opened a new studio in Warsaw, Poland. Larian Studios Warsaw is the developer-publisher’s seventh studio worldwide, and joins others in Barcelona, Dublin, Gent, Guildford, Kuala Lumpur, and Quebec. </p>
<p>”With two very ambitious RPGs now starting development, what better way to see our visions realized than by growing our team and opening a 7th studio in the heart of Poland’s lively gaming scene,” the company’s announcement <a href=”https://x.com/larianstudios/status/1792495491256664211″>post</a> on X (formerly) Twitter reads. </p>

<p>As for what those two RPGs are, don’t expect a sequel to Baldur’s Gate 3. Despite <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/2024/04/11/every-winner-at-the-20th-bafta-games-awards”>winning countless awards</a> last year, <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/the-game-awards-2023/2023/12/07/every-winner-at-the-game-awards-2023″>including Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2023</a>, <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/2024/03/21/larian-ceo-says-the-studio-is-done-with-baldurs-gate-3-to-focus-on-something-new”>Larian’s CEO revealed back in March that the studio is done</a> with both Baldur’s Gate 3 – so no expansions – and the Baldur’s Gate series in general. </p>
<p>Over on a separate blog post about Larian Studios Warsaw, the company talks about its plans with seven worldwide studios open now. </p>
<p>”Larian Studios set up base in one of the greatest RPG development hubs in the world – Poland, where we opened our doors in the historic city of Warsaw,” the <a href=”https://larian.com/careers/location/warsaw?location=warsaw”>blog post</a> reads. “Like its sister studios across the globe, Larian Studios Warsaw is dedicated to fostering an environment where developers can thrive creatively and reclaim their agency. Systems-heavy RPGs need best-in-class developers; that’s why we’ve put the people who build those systems at the center of our culture.” </p>
