Divinity can wait: Baldur’s Gate 3 boss Swen Vincke “not expecting anyone” at Larian’s Barcelona studio to show up following Spain’s World Cup win
Larian Studios boss Swen Vincke has joked that he doesn't expect any staff to turn up at the developer's Barcelona office after Spain's World Cup victory, acknowledging that football celebrations are likely to take precedence over work at the Baldur's Gate 3 studio. The comment, made in good humour, reflects the scale of national celebration following Spain's win and highlights the light-hearted relationship Vincke maintains with his development teams across Larian's various international studios.
Larian Studios, best known for the critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate 3, operates multiple studios worldwide, including one in Barcelona, Spain. Vincke's remark suggests he is giving staff leeway to enjoy the national celebrations rather than expecting business as usual, a light-hearted gesture from the studio head rather than a formal announcement of closure or delay to any ongoing projects.
