Here’s a long list of effects on games events, game development, esports, and more in response to Covid-19 concerns.

Most importantly, yes, Baldur’s Gate 3 will continue the story from Baldur’s Gate and its sequel. It isn’t a direct sequel, but Larian say “we wouldn’t call it Baldur’s Gate 3 if there wouldn’t be a link.”

Folks have now started building tiny cube homes in the space sandbox on collectively-colonized planets.
