Mar 18, 2024 3:38 PM

The latest update for the highly anticipated title Baldur's Gate 3, known as hotfix 22, has been released across all platforms including PC, PlayStation 5, Mac, and importantly, Xbox Series X and S, aligning the Xbox version with other platforms. Prior to this, the Xbox version had been missing several updates due to an exclusive crash bug, but with the inclusion of hotfixes 20 and 21 in the current roll-out, the issue has been rectified. Additionally, any problems related to cross-saves for Xbox players have now been resolved, with Larian Studios expressing gratitude to players for their patience.

This update offers several fixes including crash preventions, UI improvements such as better messages for syncing and cross-save failures, and scripting fixes that address issues like ending dialogues abruptly and being stuck in combat scenarios. One humorous note is a fix to a recurring dialogue error involving character Minthara.

What do the recent updates entail for Baldur's Gate 3 players?

These updates, especially hotfix 22, bring a range of crash and blocker fixes, UI improvements, and script corrections that enhance the overall gaming experience. They tie up loose ends in the story narrative, improve cross-saving functionality, and correct dialogue errors, ensuring a smoother and more engaging playthrough for dedicated gamers.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a role-playing game that immerses players in the Dungeons & Dragons universe, building upon a rich legacy that started with the original Baldur's Gate released in 1998. As the third major game in the series, its development is led by Larian Studios, known for their expertise in creating expansive RPGs with deep mechanics and storytelling, as evidenced by their previous success with the Divinity: Original Sin series.
