Baldur's Gate III's eighth and potentially final major patch is undergoing its official stress test. While some Sony console players received early access, those opting out are advised to reinstall the game.
Patch 8 introduces highly anticipated cross-platform play between PC and consoles, enabling players with linked Larian accounts to team up regardless of platform. Remarkably, even modded games can participate in crossplay, provided all mods used by the PC player are also available on Mac and consoles, and the host's mod count remains below ten.
Addressing a significant demand, split-screen co-op is now being tested on the Xbox Series S, a feature previously unavailable on this platform.
Beyond multiplayer enhancements, Patch 8 boasts a fully customizable photo mode and twelve new subclasses, enhancing gameplay diversity. Bug fixes and balance adjustments are also included, although some issues persist. A comprehensive changelog for the stress test is accessible on the game's official website.
