Here’s some very happy news for Baldur’s Gate 3 fans: it seems we’ll be getting another delicious bite of Astarion sooner than we imagined!
Larian Studios has just announced that the game's universe is expanding into a new medium, as the studio closed a partnership with Wizards of the Coast and some book publishers for an exciting collaboration that will surely please vampire fans, collectors, and those passionate about the game's lore.
