Well, if you were worried that the game might have a hard time retaining the feel of the original ones, you should be able to sleep better tonight after the news that ex-BioWare writer, David Gaider, has joined the studio as creative director. Gaider has worked on the original Baldur's Gate games while in BioWare and was also a writer and designer on Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age: Inquisition, and more. By bringing in someone who's had a hand in the original games, Beamdog hopes that its Baldur's Gate game will retain the franchise's feel and please its fans.

If you don't know much about Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear, the game takes place at a time in between Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II, will use an updated version of the Infinity Engine, and will offer around 25 hours of gameplay. It will also add new characters and a new class, and you'll be able to use your characters from the first game and then export them to the second one. If you like the classic RPGs, I expect you'll enjoy this one quite a lot. The game is coming "soon" and it will hit the PC first before iOS, so don't expect it too soon.
