Baldur's Gate 3 is on PS5, but how well does it run compared to the PC version?
Baldur’s Gate 3 is perfectlyYou’ll have no problem finishing the game, so long as you can ignore a litany of minor issues that plague the experience, though none of them are game-breaking. The bulk of the issues are performance and glitch-related, with the former being not as much of a problem for a turn-based RPG.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is compatible with the DualSense controller, and Larian did a fantastic job making sure the game works with this control method. Indeed, my own playthrough on PC used a controller, so it’s my preferred way of playing. Baldur’s Gate 3 also has adaptive trigger and haptic feedback compatibility, but both are rarely used in the current build, so you may as well disable them to save on battery life.
The game looks amazing, especially for those who have tried running it on PC and were forced to drop the settings as low as possible to get it working. The lighting and character models have never looked better. If you’re excited for Baldur’s Gate 3 after reading all of the online hype, then the PS5 might be your cheapest option unless you’re looking for a portable version with poorer visuals, so you should seek out a Steam Deck.
There seems to be parity between the PC and PS5 versions when it comes to technical issues. With the PS5 port, you’re at least guaranteed a hardware baseline, while the PC audience will always be facing issues with the variable graphics cards and builds that people use. One saving grace is that the PS5 version works out of the box, while any PC user could potentially face issues that they’re unaware of before booting up the game for the first time.
