The beautifully chill startup screen in Baldur’s Gate 3 came “pretty late” in development after “SO MANY versions” were tested, says publishing lead

One of the first things that you see when loading Baldur's gates 3 This is an elevated view of the city, and one of the first things that you hear is the wind, gently breaks through trees, chirping the fauna of the region, and also not very many. This is the launch screen for Baldur's Gate 3, which instructs you just “press any key to continue” or, as an alternative, just enjoy an incredibly peaceful scene, as I often do for a few moments before pressing.

I am not the only one who appreciates this small piece of serene in the “Gate of 3 Baldura”, since the user of X @cheersitskatie recently spoke about the “underestimated” screen, describing it as “literally so perfect and relaxing that I could continue to play the background all day.”
