The debate over the vitality of big single-player games has resurfaced, and this time, Swen Vincke, CEO of Larian Studios and the mastermind behind the critically acclaimed single-player game Baldur's Gate 3, has offered his perspective. In a recent post on X/Twitter, Vincke addressed the recurring claim that single-player games are "dead," asserting, "Use your imagination. They're not. They just have to be good."
Vincke's assertion carries weight, given Larian Studios' track record of success with titles like Divinity: Original Sin and Divinity: Original Sin 2, culminating in the triumph of Baldur's Gate 3. His insights, often shared at events like The Game Awards, consistently highlight the importance of passion in game development, respect for both developers and players, and a genuine commitment to the craft.
The year 2025 has already witnessed the success of another major single-player title, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 by Warhorse Studios, proving that there is still a strong market for such games. With many months remaining in the year, there's ample opportunity for other single-player games to capture the audience's attention.
Larian Studios has chosen to move on from Baldur's Gate 3 and the Dungeons & Dragons franchise to develop a new intellectual property. Meanwhile, at this year's Game Developers Conference, Dan Ayoub, SVP of digital games at Hasbro, hinted that updates on the future of the Baldur's Gate series might be forthcoming.
