Baldur's Gate III's eighth and potentially final major patch is undergoing a crucial stress test. While some Sony console players received early access, developers advise reinstalling the game for a cleaner stress test experience.
Patch 8 introduces highly anticipated cross-platform play between PC and consoles. Players with linked Larian accounts can seamlessly join friends regardless of their platform. Even modded gameplay is supported, provided all mods are compatible across PC, Mac, and consoles, and the host's mod count remains below ten.
Xbox Series S users rejoice! Split-screen co-op, previously unavailable on this console, is now part of the stress test.
Further enhancements include a fully customizable photo mode and twelve new subclasses, adding depth and replayability. Bug fixes and balance adjustments are also included, although some issues may persist. A comprehensive changelog is accessible on the game's official website.
