Subscribe to our newsletterBaldur's Gate 3 game studio Larian doesn't seem to be involved with HBO's recently announced streaming series that will serve as a live-action sequel to the smash D&D video game. But they won't be without a guide into the inner workings of Dungeons & Dragons, as former Wizards of the Coast game architect Chris Perkins has signed on as a consultant for the show.
Per Deadline, Perkins joins The Last of Us TV co-creator Craig Mazin, who will bring his experience adapting video games to the small screen as showrunner of the Baldur's Gate 3 sequel show. With that kind of pedigree, it's almost certain that the show will hew closely to the nature of D&D, especially the interpretation of its world and rules presented in the video game source material.
