Baldur's Gate 3 on Xbox Series X/S missed the cut-off for 3 discs by around 500 MB.
The hotfix also adds crash safeguards for saves that won't load, fixes an infinite loot bug and makes some characters more sociable.
Larian Studios' acclaimed role-playing game achieved this in a "very short space of time," according to director of publishing Michael Douse.
Larian is working on "establishing a pipeline that lets mod authors release their mods across different platforms", as well as "forming a team to support mod curation."
It includes new Legendary actions in Honour Mode, additional idle animations in camp, and other quality-of-life features.
“As you turn the corner into 2024, you’re still going to have the tail from Baldur’s Gate 3,” said Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks.
The patch features quality-of-life improvements like prioritizing the player when dialogue automatically triggers and fixes for skills.
The patch is a "hefty one" and includes new camp idle animations, bug fixes and much more for the acclaimed role-playing game.
Save files generated by Error 544 should now be visible for players to delete on PS5 by heading into the "Load Game" menu.
Baldur's Gate 3's latest update now has Gale no longer quitting the party if you don't give him a magic item even once.
The action-adventure title is also nominated for Game of the Year, alongside Baldur's Gate 3, Alan Wake 2, Cocoon, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
A firmware update will be available next week. Larian Studios couldn't independently verify the fix, but it's "optimistic."
Waypoints now have categories for easier sorting, and cross-save will no longer sync modded playthroughs across all platforms.
Larian Studios boss Swen Vincke is at work on his next project, but he says we won't be hearing about it for a while yet.
The bug is due to a firmware issue, which Microsoft is aware of, though it “may take a while before a proper fix becomes available.”
Various crashes, progression blockers, and much more have also been addressed. It also adds Japanese language for PS5 and PC in Japan.
Crashes affecting Xbox players during the initial cloud sync or that occur when synching multiple big saves together should be gone.
"We made a big game, so I think there's a fair price to be paid for that, and I think that that is okay," said Larian's Swen Vincke.
Larian Studios' role-playing game is also available for PS5 and PC and has received extensive praise from various outlets.
