Larian Warns Fans About Baldur’s Gate 3 Deluxe Edition Scalpers

Last week, Larian Studios officially revealed the Baldur’s Gate 3 Deluxe Edition, the long-awaited physical release of its acclaimed RPG. This also marks the first time that Xbox Series X/S players will receive the game as it was previously released for PS5 and PC only. Larian has now urged fans to be aware of scalpers trying to sell the Deluxe Edition at a marked-up price, confirming that it isn’t a limited edition item and therefore won’t sell out.

Larian Studios’ Director of Publishing Michael Douse took to Twitter/X to warn fans about scalpers trying to sell the Baldur’s Gate 3 Deluxe Edition under the guise of limited quantity. In truth, stock for the Deluxe Edition is abundant and players won’t have an issue simply purchasing it at its regular retail price.

Douse’s comment reads:

“Just FYI the Deluxe Edition is *not* a limited edition and stock is holding steady, with more waves being prepared within the Q1 2024 shipping window, so if you see them online being resold based on confirmed preorders at higher prices, skip it. There won’t be stock scarcity.”

The Baldur’s Gate 3 Deluxe Edition, which costs $79,99, contains a three CD soundtrack, two fabric patches, a cloth world map, a Mind Flayer poster and 32 stickers, all wrapped in an awesome display box. The PS5 version will ship with two discs while the Xbox Series X/S will contain three discs.

Pre-orders are currently available though it seems to be limited to Larian’s dedicated online store at the moment. We’ll update you as soon as we get confirmation of local listings and prices for the Deluxe Edition.

In other news, Baldur’s Gate 3 is currently up for eight nominations at The Game Awards this year including Game of the Year. Check out the full list of nominees right here.
