Five years ago, before 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Baldur's Gate 3 launched out of early access, Lar𝓡ian Studios publishing director Michael 'Cromwelp' Douse got drunk in a bar and scribbled the release date on a random bottle of whisky. It would've been a prized—if bizarre—leak had anyone found it. But nobody did.

Roll for perception... and that's a one.

As 🎉reported by , Douse mused thatꦯ it's a blessing that this drunken mistake went unnoticed, otherwise it could've become a bigger problem for him and the studio.

"In retrospect it's funny and not a legal issue," he tweeted. "Maybe I did it again? Who knows." I'm now left wondering if this is a wider habit among developers, and if I should be hoovering up whisky at every bar in the United States in the hopes of finding 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Half-Life 3's release date—then again, I like my liver.

...But It'd Have Been The Wrong Baldur's Gate 3 Release Date

As many commenters have pointed out, even if someone did miraculously find the bottle, and somehow knew that it was from a Larian dev, it wouldn't have been accurate an🌠yway.

Baldur's Gate 3 💦released early on PC to avoid clash𝔍ing with Starfield, which, at the time, was expected to be 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a Skyrim-sized launch. The PS5 port, on the other hand, was delayed ▨to September 6, and the Xbox port was pushed back even further to December 7. Whꦏatever Douse wrote five years ago couldn't have accounted for those last-minute changes.

Either way, it's a fun little story, and the exact kind of bizarre conspiracy you'd expect to hear from the Silksong community. Who knows, though? Maybe Team Cherry has hidden the release date out in the wild somewhere, and while fans are busy digging through brief snippets of footage at Xbox and Nintendo events, there's a♛ bar with a bottle just waiting to ♍give us all the answers. Probably not, but every copium fanbase can dream, eh?
