Larian Studios has dropped the latest update for Baldur’s Gate 3, and the patch notes are here.
When Baldur’s Gate 3 arrived in 2023, it had taken the industry by storm. Despite being heavily inspired by the tabletop RPG, Dungeons & Dragons, it welcomed millions of fans who may never have played D&D in their lives.
During its launch, it was practically impossible to avoid talk of Larian Studios’ Baldur’s Gate 3 across social media, with players sharing stories, character interactions and impressive ways to play the game, making use of its unique gameplay mechanics.
You’d perhaps think by now that the love for Baldur’s Gate 3 would have halted, but it’s still garnering buzz from passionate fans all over the world, and we love to see it.
“The scale and scope of Baldur’s Gate 3 is unlike anything I’ve ever seen,” said GAMINGbible alumni, Ewan Moore, in his review.
“I know I’ve become the drunk bloke in the pub hammering on about The Beatles, but I can’t stop myself. I have gleefully joined the ranks of Baldur’s Gate 3’s evangelical, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
The love for Baldur’s Gate 3 isn’t dead, nor is its support from Larian Studios.
