Another week down and the end of the year is fast approaching. But it looks like we're going to have one more contender for Xbox game of the year, as smash-hit RPG Baldur's Gate 3 is making its way to Xbox Series X|S at some point in December.

Baldur's Gate 3 took the gaming landscape by storm when it dropped on PS5 and PC earlier this year, but developer's Larian had to delay the Xbox version due to issues getting the split-screen co-op working on the Series S. Thankfully big Phil Spencer stepped in and handwaved away the parity clause, meaning it could launch on Series X with the feature, and Series S without.

By all accounts it's an exceptional game, with a load of high-scoring reviews and adoring fans on other platforms. But has your hype for it faded after Xbox rolled low on initiative, or are you still planning on picking it up at launch? I know I'll be grabbing it when it drops, as I've burned through most of the other games on our best Xbox RPGs list and I need something to see me through the holidays.
