Baldur's Gate is opening again. Beamdog today announced it is at work on
enhanced versions of Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II.
Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition is in development at Beamdog subsidiary
Overhaul Games and is expected to ship this summer.
Details are thin concerning the project, but Beamdog's Trent Oster shed further light on the game via Twitter. He said Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition is "going to have new content for the game you love, made by some of the original team members."
Additionally, the developer revealed that the enhanced edition will include the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion. As for Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition, it will include the Throne of Bhaal expansion and will ship at a later date.
Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition and Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition will run on a "re-forged version" of the Infinity engine, said to boast a "variety of modern improvements." Overhaul Games will serve as publisher for both games, though platforms for the projects have not been announced.
"We're working closely with some great guys at Wizards of the Coast to ensure our work fits in properly," Oster told GameSpot. "Atari, WOTC, Hasbro, BioWare, and EA are all signed off. Took a while to pull that off, but it looks to be worth it."
