Baldur’s Gate 3 Dev Larian Wants Your Help Testing Patch 8

Larian Studios announced on Steam that a stress test for Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 will begin in January. This test will be available on PC via Steam, as well as Xbox and PlayStation consoles. Mac and GOG users will not be included in this test. Registration for the stress test is currently open.

Larian plans to thoroughly test Patch 8 for bugs and gameplay issues before its official release. They're particularly focused on cross-play functionality, stating that implementing it in a game as large as Baldur's Gate 3 has been a significant undertaking. Players are encouraged to participate in the stress test to help identify any problems. Larian suggests using the registration link to invite friends or joining the Larian Studios Discord server to find a group.

While Patch 8 marks the final major update for Baldur's Gate 3, Larian reaffirmed their commitment to supporting the game's modding community. Further updates are planned to enhance modding capabilities, allowing players to create and share their own stories. Since the release of official modding tools in September, the community has already downloaded over 70 million modules and uploaded over 3,000 mods.
