The RPG Sensation Developers Respond to TGA Nomination: 'The Heck'
The celebrated role-playing game BG3 has for the third consecutive year been nominated for Best Community Support at the prestigious gaming ceremony, prompting its creators at the studio behind the game equally shocked and thrilled.
After the announcement of this year's contenders, the verified Baldur's Gate 3 social media account posted the update, thanking the player base for their ongoing support.
"It's an absolute privilege to have been nominated for Top Community Support once more, but truly, this honor is a proof to your unwavering enthusiasm for Baldur's Gate 3," the message read.
The development studio reacted to the news with a blend of amazement and honor.
Award-Winning History
Baldur's Gate 3 officially launched on PC in the summer of 2023 and went on to win Game of the Year at that year's ceremony, where it also won honors for Outstanding Performance, Role-Playing Game of the Year, Superior Multiplayer, Fan's Choice, and Excellent Community Support.
The following year, it was again nominated for the community award and ultimately took home the trophy. Now, it has received a nod for a third consecutive year, and many believe it has a good shot of winning again.
Continuous Backing Despite Final Update
Although Larian released the title's last major patch in April of this year, that patch was exceptionally large. Patch #8 brought some long-awaited features like cross-play and in-game photography, in addition to adding 12 new subclasses to the title.
Although the studio stated that this update would be the conclusion of new Baldur's Gate 3 content, the studio has continued supporting the game or its players, frequently adding error corrections and user experience improvements. The latest patch arrived in September as the thirty-fourth hotfix, which introduced a optimized build of the game for Valve's handheld users.
Competition and Voting
To take home the 2025 Best Community Support, Baldur's Gate 3 will have to defeat fellow nominees including FFXIV, Fortnite, Helldivers 2, and Hello Games' space epic. That might sound like a daunting challenge, but given that it beat the identical lineup to win the 2024 Best Community Support, it is entirely plausible that the developers will roll another nat 20 and earn the trophy for the third consecutive time.
With nominees have been announced, fans can cast their votes through the official voting portal.
