We know that Larian Studios' upcoming Baldur's Gate 3 is a big game (https://www.destructoid.com/standard-baldurs-gate-3-playthrough-will-take-75-to-100-hours-larian-says/). With the story-driven RPG releasing on August 3?a Thursday?how does anyone expect you to wait until the weekend? At that point, you may as well take off until Friday so you can have four full days to explore the Sword Coast.
As a service to players, Larian had their legal team draft up a special leave form. To be precise, the form is a request for Special Dispensation for the aptly titled Baldur's Day. As Larian says, just give the note to your boss?they'll understand. All we need now is a disclosure form to give to our partner explaining why they might not see us for a few days while we're glued to our PC.
As the form says, this isn't our choice, but rather fate calling.
"I, the undersigned, hereby request a Special Dispensation from my regular duties and obligations in observance of the momentous occasion of the release of Baldur's Gate 3 ("Baldur's Day"). As fate would have it, I am compelled to answer a calling to gather my party and embark on an epic adventure."
There are definitely worse reasons to miss work, right?

The release date shuffleDon't forget that Larian recently announced they were moving up the PC release date of Baldur's Gate 3 (https://www.destructoid.com/baldurs-gate-3-launch-is-moving-up-almost-a-month-for-pc-owners/) by almost a month. Early September was looking pretty congested, especially with the release of Starfield on September 6.
Summerfall Studios followed up by pushing the release of their musical RPG Stray Gods back by one week (https://www.destructoid.com/musical-rpg-stray-gods-slight-delay-baldurs-gate-3-august/). As our own Eric Van Allen pointed out, an extra week can be a silver lining for last-minute polish. Especially when Stray Gods ls launching on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch all on the same day.
Baldur's Gate 3 releases on PC on August 3. PlayStation 5 players will have to wait just a little longer when BG3 releases on September 6.
