Earlier, Larian Studios had acknowledged encountering technical challenges while working on the Xbox port, particularly when it came to implementing split-screen co-op on the Series S. However, in August 2023, CEO Swen Vincke confirmed via a tweet that the functionality was no longer mandatory for the Xbox Series S.

Swen basically confirmed that the feature would be accessible on the Series X, while the Series S would not support split-screen co-op. Nevertheless, there would be cross-save progression between Steam and Xbox Series S.

While Larian Studios has yet to officially announce the pricing for the Xbox version of the game, one can speculate that it will fall within the same range as the PlayStation 5 version. Upon its initial release on PlayStation 5, it was priced at $69.99 for the Standard Edition and $79.99 for the Deluxe Edition.

Therefore, fans can reasonably anticipate that the Xbox port will likely carry a similar price point.

Larian Studios has not provided any official announcements regarding its inclusion in Microsoft's service. Given the developer's history of not releasing any titles on subscription services, it seems unlikely that BG 3 will be available on Game Pass in the near future.
