Larian Studios announced a January launch for the Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 stress test, accessible via Steam on PC and consoles (Xbox and PlayStation). Mac and GOG users will not have access. Registration is now open.
Larian plans extensive testing to identify and resolve any instability or gameplay issues before the official release. They're particularly focusing on cross-play functionality, acknowledging the significant challenge of implementing this feature in a game of Baldur's Gate 3's scale. Players are encouraged to register and participate, either with friends or through the Larian Studios Discord server.
While Patch 8 marks the final major update, Larian reaffirms its commitment to ongoing support for the modding community. Substantial future updates are planned, enhancing modding tools to facilitate richer, player-created narratives. Since September's release of official mod tools, the community has already downloaded over 70 million modules and uploaded over 3,000 mods.
