Larian hope to have future companions spend less time jumping straight into your bed, and more time with each other

After the whirlwind of Baldur’s Gate 3, Larian Studios is already looking ahead to how they develop companions in future games, starting with whatever comes next in the Divinity series. One of their main goals is to create richer dynamics not just between the player and their party, but among the companions themselves. They want these relationships to feel more natural and less rushed, especially when it comes to romance. Instead of leaping straight into bed with the player character, Larian hopes companions will spend more meaningful time interacting with each other, building bonds that feel genuine before things get… intimate. It’s a subtle shift but one that could add real depth to the roleplaying experience. Given how well Baldur’s Gate 3 blended character chemistry with player choice, it’s exciting to see Larian pushing these relationships in a more nuanced direction going forward.
