'Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance' (ALL) Re-Release Comes To Consoles Tomorrow, PC Later

by Rainier on May 6, 2021 @ 9:48 a.m. PDT

This revival of the original Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance puts the ‘action’ back into the action-RPG genre, plunging players into the heart of Faerûn.

As well as looting and leveling, players must actively defend against and dodge attacks, evade deadly traps and fight hordes of monsters ranging from swarming kobolds to the iconic and all-consuming Gelatinous Cube.

Featuring three customizable heroes, this epic adventure spans dozens of locations across three massive acts, through the dungeons beneath the city of Baldur’s Gate, to the peak of Burning Eye mountain, deep into the Underdark and beyond.

Experience a classic Dungeons & Dragons action role-playing game with enhanced graphics; up to 4k on Xbox, PS4 Pro and above.

With a PC and mobile launch planned, now’s your time to grab a friend or brave a dungeon alone and play the remastered original ahead of the all-new Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance coming in June!

Key Features:

  • A re-release of the beloved console classic, now with 4K scaling on the Xbox or PS4 Pro.
  • Three race and class combinations. Play as a dwarven fighter (Kromlech), a human archer (Vahn) or an elven sorceress (Adrianna).
