Yes. Baldur’s Gate 3 released on PlayStation 5 — the PS5 launch was pushed to September 6, 2023 (with Deluxe/Collector early access beginning a few days earlier) after the PC version moved up to August 3, 2023. This was confirmed by Larian and the PlayStation Blog around the game's release window. PlayStation Blog announcement and contemporaneous coverage noted the date change. Gematsu’s timeline summary gives the same context.
For context, Larian prioritized parity and performance across platforms — the studio targeted 60 FPS on PS5 and implemented console-specific features such as split-screen local co-op (two players) alongside up-to-four-player online multiplayer. Major post-launch updates (including cross-play and additional content in Patch 8) continued to roll out, with the final big patch arriving in April 2025.
