Baldur's Gate 3 Could Be Getting an Unexpected Crossover

If the words of Baldur’s Gate 3 director Swen Vincke are anything to go by, the award-winning RPG could soon get some sort of crossover with Vampire Survivors. Given that both games are rooted in fantasy, a crossover between the two would make sense.

Baldur’s Gate 3 and Vampire Survivors are two successful games in their own right. While the former is a AAA title that bagged multiple Game of the Year awards last year, the latter is an indie game that achieved way more success than was initially thought possible.

After this, the post was swarmed with excited fans of both games. Some fans expressed their desire to see the popular Baldur's Gate 3 character Asterion in Vampire Survivors. Another user said, “Would kill to play as Peppino in BG3.”

On the other hand, Vampire Survivors has also seen its numbers stagnate over the past year after last crossing 10,000 average concurrent players in April 2023.

Clearly, each game could use some new content to boost their player engagement, and this year seems to be the perfect time for an injection of new players for certain reasons. In the case of Larian
