With Larian Studios no longer working on the Baldur’s Gate franchise and currently developing two RPGs of its own, many fans fear that the studio will scale back its games.
Speaking to PCGamer, CEO Swen Vincke said that won’t happen and that Larian will continue to focus on big projects. “The machine was built to make great games. We’re built to make big, ambitious RPGs and explore new things,” he said.
According to the CEO, the team already knows what the gameplay will look like and expects great things. “We really know what we want from our game systems, how to develop them, how to do something new… And all this is very important,” he added.
Unfortunately, Sven did not give any information about new projects of Larian. However, when asked about the possibility of the studio leaving fantasy and working on a game in another genre, for example, science fiction, he did not rule out such a possibility.
“Absolutely, yes. There are a lot of things I’d like to do,” the CEO said when asked about the possibility of developing a game outside the fantasy genre.
