Black Isle Says A Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II Re-Release Is "On The Table"

Loved the first game back in the day. Would love a chance to get to finally play the second.

BG:DA2 won a lot of awards back in the day, and garnered some GOTY nominations. It really was the best console ARPG at the time. Different stories for each playable characters and each one was fun.

I want this and II on the switch pretty bad - weird that there is a problem with the first one

So how much did Microsoft pay them to delay the Switch version of the first one?

@Slowdive I mean... Dark Alliance is fun and all, but the Baldur’s Gate games are true classics. Sure, not everything’s aged well and I barely understand that iteration of D&D rules but it has a great cast and loads to do.

@Slowdive There’s a massive barrier for at least the first 4-5 hours and then the combat feels more manageable. I always struggle for a bit going back to it. Planescape Torment is absolutely the better game though!

i just desire online play if i gunna get them otherwise i gunna play my physical copy of champions of norrath and champions of norrath return to arms.

Part of me think that Dark Alliance 1 & 2 will get a physical release but the last Dungeons and Dragons rereleases didn’t seem to sell well.

Oh man, playing through BG:DA has been a treat! Nothing better than couch co-op with another human! Please, please, please release the second one. I didn't know I was missing it in my life so much. And if you can get the 2 Champion of Norrath games out also, that would be amazing!!!!

Wait. When did Black Isle come back?

Awesome. Sony should keep the trend going and pump out HD ports of Champions of Norrath and Return to Arms.

I world absolutely love to see BG:DA 2 on the Switch. I just had a GameCube back in the day, so never got to play the sequel. I considered getting an old PS2 or XBox just to play it, but focused on the Wii instead.

Yes please to the sequel! Wonder when the first game will actually release on Switch

@stevep

think that tin foil hat is cutting of oxygen to the brain

@suikoden Feel free to be naive if you are happier that way

A little dissappointed that they didn't upgrade DA in HD but sure, I never played DA2. Good news 😀

@stevep You do know that it's also on PS4 right? If Microsoft paid to keep it off a platform, would it be Nintendo or PS4...?

How about they slow their roll and finish this release before talking about how the second one could be released (and definitely delayed on the Switch... AGAIN!).

For delaying the port, they should at least dropped the price to $20 on the eShop, it's not a surprise anymore when the game was already spoiled by the other ports.

Would love to play both versions on the switch and/or pc!

I will buy this if my relative wants to play local multiplayer! I'm just hankering for another game like that.

I agree with most of the comments here. Especially seeing a Remaster of both Champions of Norrath games. Man those games were great! I remember the external modem device you had to buy to play online but it was so worth it just for this game! I want to buy Dark Alliance for sure but its $30? The new game coming out will be $40. Just not a great idea in my opinion. But then again they know people like me will still pay that much for the game haha.

I really hope balders gate dark alliance 2 is released on switch, I played it so much and I want to play it a bunch again.
