Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition Getting 25-Hour Expansion
After 17 years, Baldur’s Gate is getting a new expansion. Beamdog has announced that the updated version of the game, Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition, is due for a 25-hour add-on called Siege of Dragonspear.
The add-on, which was just shown for the first time on Beamdog’s Twitch channel, includes a number of enhancements. The original cast will be joined by four new adventurers. There are new areas to explore (and monsters that inhabit them), and when it’s all over, you can export your save to Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Edition.

Cross-platform multiplayer is supported, so you and up to five friends can take on the adventure together. For those that simply want to experience the story, a lower difficulty option is available to ease the challenge.
The expansion will be released first for PC, Mac, and Linux. Android and iOS versions will be available later as an in-app purchase. Regardless of platform, Siege of Dragonspear is priced at $19.99.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
