Platforms: PC, PS5

 

HIGHLIGHTS

• Baldur’s Gate 3 is now fully supported on Mac!

Combat

• Grym suddenly got eerily smart and was avoiding the Crucible in the Adamantine Forge. With a nervous laugh, we dumbed him back down a little.
• Fixed Level 4 or higher Divine Smite allowing you to add Divine Smite as a reaction, allowing for two Divine Smites in 1 attack.
• Fixed the Divine Smite damage increasing over the cap of 5d8.
• Made several improvements to the Poltergeist enemy: they are now revealed on being attacked or hit with Radiant Spirit Guardians; they will not turn Invisible again if they are still in a character's See Invisibility aura; in Balanced and Explorer Mode, they have disadvantage on Dexterity Saving Throws when Invisible; the range of their attacks has been reduced; and they won't try to keep distance from the player in combat so that they are easier to find.

PS5

This lyre can now be used to call for the drider through the Shadow-Cursed Lands, like Minthara's lyre does. Both lyres have new descriptions.
  • Nere no longer mentions Minthara in his Speak with Dead.
  • You can ask Minthara for a safe passage to Moonrise if you'd heard about it. She will ask to raid the Emerald Grove first. If this happens, Nere can be asked about Minthara and then Minthara can be asked about Nere.

Full Release Patch #1

Released August 25, 2023

 

You won’t be waiting long for Patch 2, which is right around the corner. This update will feature significant performance improvements - but we’ll go into more detail about that closer to its release.
In the meantime, did you know that collectively you’ve played over 200,000,000 hours of Baldur's Gate 3 since launch? That’s over 22,000 years!

The most popular class choice is currently Paladin, followed by Sorcerer, while the award for least popular class goes to Cleric.
Human and Elf characters reign supreme in Faerûn, followed swiftly and unsurprisingly by Half-Elf. On the opposite end of the spectrum we find Dwarf, Gnome, Githyanki, and Halfling. We get it, they’re not exactly the most ethereal beauties of the Realms but they’d still form a rad metal band.

For now, as we focus on fixes, thank you for playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and continuing to share this adventure with us.

SPOILERS - Please bear in mind some of the entries below might contain spoilers, proceed at your own risk.

Patch #8

Release date 7/7/2022

Patch 8 for Baldur’s Gate 3 has taken to the stage, bringing with it the brand new bard class, playable gnomes, Swarm AI, and countless other improvements and fixes demonstrating how much the game has been growing and maturing throughout our journey in early access. We’re also delighted to add another language to our lexicon. Brazilian Portuguese players, we’ve heard your requests and are pleased to present it as an officially supported language.

 Mac users, Patch 8 will arrive soon. We’ve got a little bit of bug hunting left to do on the platform, so keep your eyes on our feeds for further news. To tide you over until then, here are the full notes for Patch 8.

 These just keep getting longer, huh? If you’re after a deep dive into Patch 8, then we have a Community Update available right now. Without delay, let’s raise the curtain, tune the orchestra, and dive into the full notes.

 Patch notes related to community-reported issues and feedback are indicated with an asterisk. Like this.*

 

HIGHLIGHTS
 

• We are thrilled to announce the bard class! Hurl pithy one-liners at your enemies, play songs with your companions by the campfire, and marvel at the unique VFX and SFX for each attack! The bard class has the College of Lore and College of Valour subclasses.
• Musical instruments can be used by any class with the Performer feat at Level 4. You can perform songs anywhere you like, but be prepared for certain NPCs to react to your performances or even join in. And if they really appreciate your musical abilities, you could find yourself walking away with a reward.
• Gnomes are now a playable race! There are three gnome subraces with their own traits: rock gnomes, forest gnomes, and deep gnomes. All gnomes start with Gnome Cunning and +2 Intelligence, and we’ve added gnome reactivity to dialogues and situations. (And don’t tell them we said this, but they make some mean projectiles.)
• Ranged critical hits now have combat cameras! Watching your projectiles pierce your enemies has never been cooler.
• Baldur’s Gate 3 is now playable in Brazilian Portuguese - vamo nessa!
• Added new spells! Try out the spells available to all: Calm Emotions, Enthral, Heroism, Phantasmal Force, and Vicious Mockery. And if you’re playing as a Bard, have a go at Cutting Words, Song of Rest, and a certain new tadpole power.
• Added a new hair-shading model, gave all hairstyles an upgrade, and made all of our 66 hairstyles available to every single race and body type.*
•  Added a hair highlight feature to character creation.
•  Added a grey hair feature to character creation.
• Implemented Swarm AI, which is a quality-of-life improvement that bands together minor creatures (like animals and goblins) so that they act faster. They all move at the same time and then take quick turns to attack instead of each taking a full turn to move and then attack. This means that your experience in fights with numerous enemies is now a lot smoother and faster.*
• Rogues now have access to Expertise at Level 1.*
• Added digging! You can now use a shovel to dig up treasures and secrets in hidden locations throughout Act 1.
• Added sustained emotion acting to cinematics. We’ve created a library of facial animations that allows characters to continue emoting realistically instead of reverting to a neutral stance while you make decisions during dialogues.
• Added cinematic acting for background characters: We’ve added more support for companions in the background of dialogues so that they are aware of and react to the drama unfolding before them.
• It's time for the elves to step forward and stand out as a uniquely animated race. They have been graced by elegant and refined poses, and are eager to demonstrate to the world their exotic fighting style.
• Detect Thoughts has had a rework! As we continue to work on the SFX and VFX, you can now choose to cast Detect Thoughts from within dialogues instead of having to cast it beforehand.
• A new type of cinematic dialogue now triggers if you commit a crime. Will you persuade the NPC to let you go or will they see through your ruse?
• The sunlight through the clouds now has a bigger effect on shadows and lighting, and gameplay is now more closely aligned with the light and dark areas you see in the game.
• Revamped the lighting across Act 1 for improved visuals and readability.
• Implemented sound occlusion: The game now simulates the behaviour of sounds coming from other rooms and behind doors. This prevents sound from travelling through walls or closed doors.
• Introduced auditory attenuation: A series of dynamic audio-mixing features now enhance immersion by focusing on your actions and dynamically selecting the most important elements of the soundscape.
• Added 10 new skin colours, in Neutral, Cool, Warm, Pallid, and Blush tones, to character creation.
• Gale has received visual updates to his face and hair.
• Class passive features are now displayed in the Character Sheet.*
• The movement bar on the HUD has been redesigned and is now much easier to see.
• Low spec PCs no longer become unresponsive and fail to load world assets when loading specific save files.
• Implemented the first phase of our networking improvements, meaning that players with slower and less reliable internet connections should see a noticeable improvement in stability and reduction of lag when playing multiplayer with their friends.
• Implemented and now provide support for Nvidia DLAA as an anti-aliasing alternative.
• Implemented a shipload of UI updates. Check out the extensive list in the UI section below!
• You can now cast Mage Hand while you have a summoned familiar active.*
• Ranger’s Companions and familiars can now gain health with a Short Rest.
• Creatures summoned with the Ranger's Companion feature and Find Familiar spell now remain with the party after a Long Rest.*

Update Your Game to Patch

Any saves made Patch 6 or prior will no longer be compatible when updated. There are options for you if you want to continue your Patch 4, Patch 5 or Patch 6 saves, or if you instead want to make sure you’ve got the most up-to-date content. Have a gander below and follow the directions for whichever solution suits you best.

 

 

If you’d like to continue your save file on the current version, you can move to the Patch 6 beta branch now. Save files are not ‘deleted’ from your computer; they’ll remain in your folder, but you’ll only be able to load saves specific to their respective versions.

Important Note: If you want the option to go back to a previous patch, it’s best to make a new in-game profile and backup your local saves from the previous patch. You can do the following before or after you update to the latest version:

Before starting a new playthrough, create a new profile by clicking the profiles button on the top left of the main menu. All your progress in the new patch will then be saved under this profile while your old saves are safe in the previous profile.

 

As an extra safety measure, you can manually back up your savegames:

• Go to /Documents/Larian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3/PlayerProfiles/
• Find the folder that is named after the profile you used in the previous patch
• Copy and paste this entire folder into a backup location

Patch #5

 

 

Basic Actions 

When it comes to Basic Actions, there are a number of improvements that you should take note of. First is the new Disengage Action, which allows you to retreat from enemies in Melee Range without giving them the chance to perform Attacks of Opportunity. This is a significant update because Disengage used to be a part of Jump that doesn’t guarantee the prevention of Melee Attacks.

To make it crystal clear, Jump is used to strategically position yourself better in combat whereas Disengage allows you to escape from precarious situations. So if you’re a Wizard who is caught in the thick of combat, you can now use Disengage without worrying if you’ll be hit by an Attack of Opportunity or not.

And second, there’s a new Non-lethal Attack Mode, which gives you the option to knock NPCs out without having to kill them. So if you wish to steal something from a hapless victim, and they’re starting to get riled up about it, you can just knock them out to pacify them. Simple.

 

Spell Changes

For Spell, the most noticeable changes are related to its effects and Concentration. These Spell animations and effects are updated and will have a unified look depending on the Class’s design that they’re a part of. Meanwhile, Spells which are used by multiple Classes will also be modified to be more similar to those that are Class specific.

You can also willfully cancel Concentration on a Spell. For example, you no longer have to suffer the prolonged effects of Fog Cloud.

 

Enemy AI Improvements

Enemy AI is now smarter than ever because they employ more tactical strategies and they possess some of the features available to player characters. For instance, creatures will do everything in their means to attack you regardless if they have a Weapon or not. If enemies are unarmed and they see a Weapon lying around nearby, they’ll grab it and attack you with it. What’s cool about this update is how you can use this scenario to your Advantage by disarming your target beforehand. This pushes them into a situation where they’ll need to utilize Action Points just to run towards and equip a Weapon in order to hit you.

Furthermore, enemy AIs are able to use their resources more efficiently. For example, they’ll carefully plan their next series of attacks so they can still have room to execute other actions like Dash or some Spells in the future. They can even use Throw to heal their party members from a distance by hurling Healing Potions at them, similar to how a player character would. Of course, these enhancements will be used by friendly NPCs as well.

 

Gameplay Improvements

How Spells Influence Dice Rolls

Dice rolls play an active part in whatever action you decide to do, may it be in combat or in dialogue. In the current setup, dice rolls are displayed at the center of the screen when you’re talking to NPCs. You just hope for the best that you get a favorable roll. In the new patch, you’ll be able to influence its outcome. To increase the chances of NPCs agreeing with you, you can use your or your Companions’ Spells. But remember that you’ll make use of Spell Slots when you cast a Spell so choose wisely.

So for example, you can opt to cast Enhance Ability first to account for the Advantage bonus you get in order to roll twice. This raises the chances of tipping the scale in your favor. Alternatively, Guidance is also a good Spell, which also increases your chances for success. What makes this more fun is when you’re playing with friends because they can decide if they really want to help you by casting a beneficial Spell on you or if they prefer to see you fail. You know what some friends are like.

 

Long Rest and Camp 2.0

If you’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for quite some time now, you’ll notice how easy it is to abuse the Long Rest Feature with the simple click of a button. Previously, you’d get instantly teleported into your Camp by the river, to restore all of your HP and Spell Slots. This could be done after every combat encounter, which cheapens these fights as your resources are always topped up.

This time around in order to take a Long Rest, you’ll have to gather camp supplies, which comprises all of the food and scrap you can buy (or steal). Heaps of food should go a long way to keep you satiated and ready for the events to come.  If you’re low on supplies, you can opt to take a Partial Rest instead. This only restores a portion of your HP and Spell Slots, but it won’t use up any food.

Moreover, your party will also be teleported into different campsites, depending on the location. You no longer magically exit the Underdark when you want to take a nap. Larian has made Mini Camps near major landmarks, such as the Chapel near the Ravaged Beach or the Underdark.

 

New Player Experience

In Patch 5, a huge chunk of the changes stems from the need to improve new player experience. On top of the tutorials, which start popping out in Character Creation, more tooltips will be present after this update. These tooltips will be linked to others so it’s easier to digest and to understand the game’s core concepts and mechanics. You can simply hover over one to know more. Additionally, you even have the option to pin them to your screen so you can easily refer back to it should you have questions about certain terms or actions.

 

New Background Goals

Backgrounds such as Folk Hero, Acolyte and Urchin now matter more than ever and it doesn’t end in Character Creation. Backgrounds will now have corresponding secret side quests to further flesh out the origin stories of your characters and to accumulate Inspiration Points when you complete them. These Inspiration Points can be used to reroll an unfavorable dice roll in dialogue checks. You can obtain a maximum of 4 Inspiration Points. So when you reach this number, any additional points go into extra XP. Not only do you discover more about how your character came to be, you’ll also be rewarded for seeking out these secrets.

 

Interactions with Shadowheart

Out of the 5 available Companions in Baldur’s Gate 3, Shadowheart will receive a lot of improvements. To provide more details about her background, new dialogue will be uncovered once you recruit her and once you find out more about her mysterious item. Most importantly, you can now free Shadowheart during the tutorial.

 

Point and Click Dialogue System

The new Point and Click Dialogue System will now allow your character to provide their insights and thoughts on the world, the story, and the environment during their travels. Huge efforts have been made to make this new feature as immersive as possible. Dialogue will change depending on the context and the character you’re playing as. Should you wish to reduce the constant mumbling of your thoughts, there’s an option to make this less frequent.

 

Patch #4

 

Druid will be added as a class.

"With the power of the wilderness at their fingertips, Druids can transform their shape to adapt to different situations," says Larian about the newest addition. "Crunch bones and slam into enemies as a Dire Wolf or Polar Bear. Spin your silken thread over the environment as a Spider. Soar above Faerun as a Raven. Sneak into hostile spaces unnoticed as a Cat. Burrow under the earth and ambush opponents as a Badger. Or temporarily embrace the tadpole that the Mindflayers have implanted inside you, discovering a new, mysterious Aberrant Shape."

Druids will also be able to choose from one of two Circles when influencing how their play experience will be like: 

• Circle of the Land: Keepers of the Old Faith, these Druids are connected to arctic wastelands, sunny coasts, scorching deserts, fair forests, green grasslands, tall mountains, treacherous swamps and even the vast, otherworldly realm of the Underdark. Based on what type of geography they’re connected to, they gain additional power.
• Circle of the Moon: Changeable as the moon, these stewards of nature haunt the deepest parts of the wilderness. Transformation is no problem for most Druids, but those who keep the ways of the moon gain the ability to morph into more powerful combative Wild Shapes like the Polar Bear.

Optional Loaded Dice

This optional change helps smooth out the extremes of the bell curve. It retains the core elements of RNG, ensuring a player can no longer be unlucky or super lucky with several dice rolls in a row. The system also runs in two parts. Dice rolls in the dialogue are different from those in combat, and this change only impacts the d20. Not damage rolls.

Speak with dead and polished cinematics

Cinematics in special cases like Speak with Dead have made huge improvements along with the ability to join conversations as an animal. The patch also adds improved animations with the Druids in the Grove as they cast spells and use their abilities. Major improvements have been made both in animation and lighting.

Multiplayer

Those embarking on their adventure together with friends can now see other players Equipment, Spells, Inventory, and Character Sheets. As well as the ability to take and place items to and from. There is no lock function – that will come in a future patch. Your friends could, for example, steal your items, because there’s no lock function yet, but there’s no rush because they’re your friends.

Quality of life

A series of much-requested features have been implemented. Players can now target friends and enemies with spells and equipment by clicking on their portraits. As an alternative to trying to click on a character in the world, players can now easily select and attack whoever they want from the UI. We also added a flee button for the tacticians among us. And using torches has never been easier thanks to the long-awaited addition of the torch button.

Improved Cinematics

Narrative cinematics has been given a new lease of life thanks to a fresh lighting pass, resulting in some truly spectacular sequences in which the story of BG3 is told.

New Spells

• Entangle – Animate vines, weeds, and creeping roots to snare and restrain your foes in a specific area.
• Flame Blade – Summon a scimitar of flame, shedding bright light around you and swinging it to scorch enemies.
• Moonbeam – Create a damaging pillar of radiant moonlight.
• Produce Flame – Light dark areas with this flickering flame in your palm, illuminate torches and immolate patches of flammable liquid.
• Shillelagh – When more powerful spells fail the Druid, this Cantrip imbues a melee weapon like a club or staff with glowing energy and makes it hit much harder.
• Thorn Whip – This prickly vine lasso cuts your enemies and yanks them closer to you.
• Barkskin – The Druid turns their skin, or an ally’s, as hard as the bole of an oak tree.
• Destroy Water – Remove damaging fog or hazardous puddles in your path.
• Enhance Ability – Give an ally or yourself Bear’s Endurance, Bull’s Strength, Cat’s Grace, Eagle’s Splendor, Fox’s Cunning or Owl’s Wisdom.
• Flaming Sphere – A ball of fire that sticks around, Druids can keep this blazing orb rolling into the path of their foes.
• Goodberry – These berries grant some healing that can be carried in your inventory or eaten right away.
• Heat Metal – Superheating metal can have harmful – or even deadly – effects, especially if an opponent of yours is wearing that metal.
• Protection From Poison – This spell neutralizes toxins in the blood and also acts as a silver bullet against all known forms of poison.
• Spike Growth – Druids can transform nearby terrain into a nest of barbs that slows and damages their foes.
