Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition features cross-platform multiplayer

30 July 2012

So we already knew that the Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition would feature cross-platform multiplayer, but which platforms would be included in the list? According to creative director Trent Oster, it’s all of them.

Oster confirmed the news via Twitter over the weekend, saying that “[Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition] will have co-op multiplayer and will work across platforms. iPad can play with Android, Mac and PC. One happy gaming family.”

That means you’ll be able to gather your party from every device ever (almost) before venturing forth. Man, Sarevok won’t know what hit him.

The game includes the original Baldur’s Gate and the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion plus loads of new content, and launches on PC, iPad, and Mac OS in September, with an Android launch to follow sometime thereafter. You can already pre-order the game for PC at a 10% discount if you want to save cash for that sweet Short Sword +1.
