This is quoted from Blues News -
A new Baldur's Gate Website is online, though for mow it offers little more than a quote and some theme music. After determining this belongs to Beamdog, the digital distributor that put out MDK2 HD, the folks at GameBanshee reached out to former BioWare designer Trent Oster, co-founder of Beamdog, and got him to tell them this about whatever the site is for: "We're not related to the Steam complete edition, I can tell you that much. Other than that, we're hoping to announce something soon."

not really, but i did find this



hell yea! :toast:

If it going to BioWare, which means EA, which means Origin, then no thanks.

If it will use DRM that does not have any on-line requirements, maybe.

Meh, I mean I loved Baldur's Gate I & II and their expansions, but this site is just a picture with BG background music... and it's not Bioware; the original BG development team has yet to be bested in the rpg department. To be a good rpg, there has to be more than just game mechanics and killing stuff, which is all most developers do these days...

I saw a report on Joystiq that someone found something about Baldur's Gate 2 in the Stream registry, probably related and it'll probably be re released soon.

*scratches head*
If it's a rerelease... what's the point?
You can get the complete Baldur's Gate series, cheap and DRM free, at GOG.com. Legally.
No logging into Steam to play.

Considering how different the Forgotten Realms is now (with the advance in timeline and all) maybe there IS a chance that it's a proper sequel.
