Baldur's Gate 3 players will be pleased to hear that a new hotfix has been released, addressing an issue that previously prevented players from taking short rests under certain conditions. This was notably problematic when dealing with the character 'Us', the intellect devourer companion, and affected players who had added and dismissed Us from their party and then loaded specific save games. Along with the rest issue, the update has also fixed a game crash happening at the transition from Act II to Act III and resolved performance issues for Mac users caused by Hotfix 21. The latter can be corrected by ensuring the game is updated to version 4.1.1.5009956. Further improvements and patches are in the works as Larian Studios continues to refine the gaming experience.
