Patch #8 for Baldur's Gate 3 is shaping up to be one of the most eagerly awaited updates in the game's history, promising to introduce cross-play capabilities, a much-anticipated photo mode, and an impressive addition of 12 brand-new subclasses. In a recent video released by Larian Studios, fans were treated to an exclusive sneak peek at four of these exciting new options: the enchanting Bard of the College of Enchantment, the formidable Barbarian of the Path of the Giant, the somber Cleric of the Death Domain, and the celestial Druid of the Circle of Stars.
With the stress-testing phase currently in full swing and additional rounds of sign-ups still available, the gaming community is buzzing with anticipation for the official release. While the exact launch date for Patch #8 remains a closely guarded secret, Larian Studios is keeping the excitement alive with regular updates and sneak peeks. This latest video serves as Part 1 of a series that will eventually showcase all 12 new subclasses, providing players with ample time to get ready for the upcoming changes.
Larian has plans to release two more trailers, each highlighting additional subclasses, ensuring that the community stays engaged and informed. The ongoing stress-test phase, which began in January, also introduced a significant update that included the long-awaited photo mode. As the final major patch in the game's post-launch development cycle, Patch #8 is poised to conclude this chapter on a high note, leaving fans eagerly wondering what the future holds for Baldur's Gate 3.
