00:00A Baldur's Gate 2 remake is reportedly in the works, with one former lead returning to the dev
00:05team. That's according to PC Gamer, who reports that, according to an anonymous source, original
00:09Baldur's Gate 2 lead designer Kevin Martens is working on the remake now. PCG notes that Martens
00:15had already been working with Wizards of the Coast recently, thanks to contributions on Archetype
00:18Entertainment's upcoming sci-fi RPG, Exodus, which Wizards of the Coast is publishing. While
00:23Baldur's Gate 2 is the RPG at the heart of this rumour, it's claimed that Baldur's Gate 1 is
00:27also likely to be getting its own remake, which makes an awful lot of sense when you consider
00:31that, well, 2 is a direct sequel, with its plot continuing straight on from the first. Hell,
00:36in the original RPGs you can even import your character to pick up things right where you
00:40left off. With that in mind, it'd be a slightly strange decision to launch a remake of the second
00:45game first. Of course, both Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2 have been given remasters before
00:49now in the form of their respective enhanced editions, so it wouldn't be the first time that
00:54they were brought back into the limelight. No indication has been given of when these rumoured
00:57remakes could be released though, so we could be in the dark for a while yet.
