Players experiencing save issues in Baldur's Gate 3 on Xbox have been given temporary steps to safeguard their game progress by Xbox Support, as Larian Studios works on a permanent fix. To prevent loss of saves, which has been a problem since the game's unexpected release at The Game Awards, players are advised to save their game, exit to the Xbox dashboard, and either use the "Quit Game" feature or "Save to Quick Resume" before shutting down their console. It's important to keep the console connected to power when not in use. Alongside these precautions, players should ensure their Xbox firmware is up to date with the latest updates. Additionally, Larian teased new game merchandise coming soon, highlighting player engagement with in-game elements such as the number of pets given to the character Scratch.

What should Baldur's Gate 3 players on Xbox do to protect their game saves until the fix is released?

Baldur's Gate 3 players on Xbox are recommended to manually save their progress, then navigate to the Xbox dashboard and either select "Quit Game" or "Save to Quick Resume" from the game menu. It is also essential to not disconnect the console from power and apply all recent Xbox updates.
