URGENT UPDATE: Baldur’s Gate 3 has just received its third consecutive nomination for Best Community Support at The Game Awards, shocking developers at Larian Studios and exciting fans worldwide. The nominees were announced earlier today, and the news has sparked immediate reactions across social media platforms.
In a heartfelt message on the official Baldur’s Gate 3 X account, developers expressed their gratitude to players, 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.”
This sentiment highlights the game’s unique connection with its community, built on unwavering support and engagement.
Baldur’s Gate 3 officially launched on PC in August 2023 and made headlines by winning Game of the Year at the 2023 awards ceremony. It also took home accolades for Best Performance (Neil Newbon as Astarion), Best RPG, Best Multiplayer, Player’s Voice, and Best Community Support. Last year, it won the Best Community Support award again, setting a high bar for this year’s competition.
Despite Larian’s confirmation that Patch #8, released in April 2024, was the final content update, the studio has remained committed to addressing player feedback. This massive update introduced new features like cross-play and photo mode, as well as 12 new subclasses. The community’s enthusiasm continues to resonate as Larian consistently rolls out bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements. The latest update, Hotfix #34, launched in September 2024, optimized the game for Steam Deck users.
As Baldur’s Gate 3 vies for the 2025 Best Community Support award, it faces tough competition from other nominees, including Final Fantasy 14, Fortnite, Helldivers 2, and No Man’s Sky. However, given its track record of beating these contenders in 2024, fans remain hopeful for another victory.
Players can actively participate in this year’s awards by casting their votes through The Game Awards website, making their voices heard in this exciting nomination. With community support at an all-time high, the anticipation around Baldur’s Gate 3’s potential win is palpable.
