An extensive update has just been released for Baldur’s Gate 3. Now available on PC through platforms like Steam, this fresh patch comes in at a hefty 12GB, bringing in new conclusions, bug fixes, and notably, official mod support, including the initial set of sanctioned creations. These mods will be accessible through a store similar to Bethesda’s Creation Club for titles like Fallout 4, Skyrim, and Starfield.

Downloading this patch might prove to be a challenge for individuals with large digital libraries and limited free space. While the patch size itself is 12GB, you will require 160GB of free space for the installation. Larian suggests that players lacking sufficient free space should uninstall the game completely and then proceed with a fresh download. This method will ensure the latest game version is installed, incorporating all the enhancements from the new patch.

The key highlights from the latest patch include:

• Introduction of ‘Evil Endings’: Fresh cinematic endings tailored for the most malevolent playthroughs.
• Inclusion of a dedicated Mod Manager, enabling players to browse, install, and utilize mods crafted by the community.
• Enhanced split screen gameplay: The split screen mode has been overhauled to dynamically merge when player characters are in close proximity and split as they move apart. This redesign is accompanied by various other enhancements to enrich the overall split screen experience.

Moreover, a new Honor Mode combat system has been implemented to intensify the challenge for hardcore gamers. The patch notes also detail a substantial array of bug fixes and enhancements across all game acts. While Baldur’s Gate 3 faced significant issues at launch, particularly in later sections, many of these problems have now been resolved a year later, ensuring a smoother gameplay experience from beginning to end.
