Baldur’s Gate 3 Dev Larian Wants Your Help Testing Patch 8

Larian Studios announced on Steam that a stress test for Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 will begin in January. This test will be available on PC via Steam, and on Xbox and PlayStation consoles. Mac and GOG users will not have access to the stress test. Registration is currently open.

Larian plans extensive testing to identify and resolve any instability or gameplay issues before the official Patch 8 release. The developer explicitly seeks player assistance in this process, particularly for cross-play functionality. They acknowledge the complexity of implementing cross-play in a game of Baldur's Gate 3's scale and encourage players to participate in the stress test to help identify potential problems. Players are encouraged to invite friends or join groups via the Larian Studios Discord server.

While Patch 8 marks the final major update, Larian reaffirmed its commitment to ongoing support for the game's modding community. Significant future updates are planned to enhance modding capabilities, allowing players to create and share their own stories. Since the September release of official mod tools, players have downloaded over 70 million modules and uploaded over 3,000 mods.
