We are bearing down on the final weeks of 2025, and somehow—somehow!—Baldur's Gate 3, a game that released more than two years ago (more than five years ago, if you count the lengthy early access stretch) is still banging the table at The Game Awards. It's reached the point where even developer Larian Studios seems a little baffled by the whole thing.
A quick recap: Baldur's Gate 3 ran the board on Game of the Year Awards in 2023, taking the big crown (and numerous other laurels) in the Steam Awards, The Game Awards, and the Golden Joysticks. It then continued to rumble in 2024, taking five trophies including Best Game and the Player's Choice awards at the 2024 BAFTAs and four more—including, again, Game of the Year—at the Gayming Awards.
