Baldur's Gate 3 - Photo Mode

One of the best games ever made is getting even better as Larian Studios has announced a release date for Patch 8 of Baldur’s Gate 3. It goes live on April 15th; however, the developer will discuss it in greater detail on Twitch the day after at 1 PM UTC.

Patch 8 includes long-awaited features like cross-platform multiplayer, cross-progression and Photo Mode. It also adds 12 new subclasses, one for each main class, including the Ranger’s Swarmkeeper, the Rogue’s Swashbuckler, the Wizard’s Bladesinging, and the Monk’s Drunken Master, among many others.

There are already 46 subclasses to choose from, and when you throw multiclassing into the mix, the sheer number of build options expands even more. Patch 8 includes other notable features, including split-screen co-op for Xbox Series S, at long last.

Stay tuned for the patch notes when they go live next week. Baldur’s Gate 3 is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. You can check out our reviews for the PC and PS5 versions.
