What you need to know

  • Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian Studios has come up with a new workaround for Xbox players affected by the game's infamous save deletion bug.
  • This workaround involves creating an account on Larian's website, turning on cross-save in Baldur's Gate 3, and linking your Xbox account with your Larian one so that your last five saves are stored on Larian's servers. You can then retrieve them if the bug causes your existing saves to disappear.
  • Since the game's surprise release on Xbox on December 7, many Baldur's Gate 3 players on the console have been affected by this issue despite repeated attempts by Larian and Microsoft to fix it.
  • A proper fix for the bug is in the works, and Larian has confirmed that the process of using this workaround will be made "more fluid" soon. Additionally, you'll also be able to store more of your saves in the cloud in the near future.
