It’s been 20 years since Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance first released on the OG Xbox and PS2, before making a move to the good old GameCube as well. Now though it’s time for the magic to be revived with a re-release of Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch. 

Available right now to purchase and download (although PS and Switch stores are a little slow to update), if you’re after a classic Dungeons & Dragons action role-player, Baldur’s gate is probably it. 

Having reached near iconic status over the years, Dark Alliance now makes use of the power of the very latest consoles as Interplay Entertainment and Wizards of the Coast put the action back into the RPG scene, and put played into the heart of Faerûn. 

Complete with enhanced visuals that run up to 4K on Xbox, PS4 Pro and above, Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance will see you looting, levelling and evading as you work through an epic adventure that spans dozens of great locations. Featuring three fully customisable heroes, you’ll be tasked with taking on all that are found within the dungeons beneath the city of Baldur’s Gate, before heading to the peak of the Burning Eye, into the Underdark and beyond. 

Running a price of £29.99, taking in Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance right now seems perfect for those preparing themselves for the launch of Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance that is coming in June. 

Features include:

  • A re-release of the beloved console classic, now with 4K scaling on the Xbox or PS4 Pro.
