Recently, it has been reported that Xbox players of Baldur's Gate 3 need to note: developer Larian recommends that you update your console immediately to avoid the risk of losing save files due to game crashes.
Baldur's Gate 3 is a widely popular role-playing game that gives players the freedom to explore and decide their own destiny in a world full of magic and adventure. The game launched in early access last year on PC and Stadia, and Xbox Series X S players were only able to experience the game's highlights last week.
However, Larian Studios posted a message today on X (formerly known as Twitter) warning Xbox players that they may experience a serious problem where save files disappear after the game crashes. This means that players may lose the effort and progress they have spent hours or even days in the game.
To fix this, Larian recommends that players manually update their Xbox systems to get the latest stability fixes. The studio says it's also pushing a small update on Xbox, but players will need to check for and install the update via the system menu, not automatically**.
It's unclear what caused the game to crash and save files to disappear, or if the issue affects players on other platforms. Still, considering Baldur's Gate 3 is a very complex and massive game, and it's still in early access, some technical issues are understandable. We hope that Larian will find and fix this issue as soon as possible, so that all players can enjoy the game.
