Patch 3 for Baldur's Gate 3 will be released on Friday, September 22. This update brings several significant changes, including the addition of a magic mirror feature in your camp. This mirror allows you to modify your character's appearance after their initial creation.
While specific details about the patch have not been disclosed by Larian, players can anticipate general improvements in performance and bug fixes, particularly for the game's complex third act. The magic mirror enables customization of your character's voice, physical appearance, and preferred pronouns. However, it is important to note that race and body type cannot be modified, and the appearances of origin characters remain unchanged.
More details about the patch's content will be provided on the launch day. Initially scheduled for September 21, the patch had to undergo additional QA testing, resulting in a delay. Presently, there is a specific problem with the PS5 version, which causes the game client to crash when connected to the internet. Larian is investigating the issue, but for now, players can temporarily resolve it by disconnecting their system from the internet and restarting the game, after which it should function properly.
In other news regarding Baldur's Gate 3, the voice cast gathered to partake in a Dungeons & Dragons session as their BG3 characters. Larian has announced that the game will eventually support cross-play, although the exact timeline is unclear. The previous significant patch introduced a new epilogue for the Tiefling Karlach, along with various performance enhancements. In recent Xbox leaks, it was discovered that Microsoft estimated a very low price for Baldur's Gate 3 on Game Pass. While it is currently unknown if the game will be available on Game Pass, a release for Xbox Series X|S is expected later this year.
