According to Larian Studios’ Director of Publishing, Baldur’s Gate 3 has
sold 2 copies in The Vatican with one Wishlist on the way.

I'm sure this is not a 'first' in anyway. The Vatican has an immense
library of books and other media, and it's likely they buy games
solely so they can be added to the collection. But even assuming it's
for personal use, the Vatican has a ppopulation of close to 1000
people, and it includes not just clergy, but various guards and
citizens who work for the Vatican... AND their families. That some of
them (maybe even the clergy!) just might enjoy video games is
completely unsurprising and ordinary. I bet there are some copies of
"Doom" in the Vatican too. And "Sonic the Hedgehog" and many other
games.

This story is just Larian marketing.
