Baldur’s Gate 3 – Hotfix #30 is Now Live

Developer Larian Studios rolled out a small hotfix for cRPG Baldur’s Gate 3, bringing multiple cross-play fixes and patching up some instances of crashing. Patch 8 was indeed the last major update for BG3, but the developers will continue releasing small patches, addressing bugs in the game. Hotfix #30 is one of these patches.

In case you have missed it, earlier in April BG3 received the last major update, introducing crossplay between PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Mac; photo mode; 12 new subclasses; and modding toolkit update. Last but not least, it also added Steam Trading Cards, allowing those playing on the platform to craft badges and unlock exclusive profile backgrounds and emoticons to use there.
