The exciting world of gaming is about to get even better with cross-play capabilities that will connect players across all platforms, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Windows, and Mac. Imagine diving into a game with friends no matter what system they’re using! Plus, the new photo mode is set to be a hit, offering a plethora of camera angles, lens options, and scene settings. Players can tweak post-processing effects, slap on some frames, and add stickers to make their party look stylish, adorable, or downright intimidating.
But that’s not all! Each class in Baldur’s Gate 3 is getting a shiny new subclass to choose from as players advance. Take the Bards, for instance; by embracing the College of Glamour, they’ll unlock more ways to heal teammates and wow foes. Meanwhile, the Monk’s Drunken Master subclass introduces a cheeky twist—using booze from your stash to boost their skills.
For those eager to see what’s in store, here’s a rundown of these new subclasses matched with their starting classes. While Larian Studios, the creative team behind Baldur’s Gate 3, hasn’t pinned down an exact release date for Patch 8, players can sneak a peek at the upcoming features during a preview stress test, hopefully set for early January. Stay tuned for more on how to jump in on the action.
Curiously, even though Larian Studios has been pretty open about their roadmap—they won’t be working on Baldur’s Gate 4 or crafting additional DLC for Baldur’s Gate 3—they are undoubtedly planning to wrap up development on this acclaimed title with something spectacular.
