Posted On: July 12, 2023

I don't want to have to go through the "Larian Launcher" when I want to play Baldur's Gate 3 in Steam. How can I skip it?


Question from user Oak at stackexchange.


Answer:

To skip the launcher in Baldur's Gate 3:


Right-click the game in the Steam game list and choose "Properties."


Add the following in the "Launch Options" option in the "General" tab that opens: skip-launcher.
