Baldur's Gate III's eighth and potentially final major patch is undergoing its official stress test. While some Sony console players received early access, developers advise reinstalling the game for those skipping the test.

Patch 8 introduces highly anticipated crossplay functionality, enabling seamless gameplay between PC and console players. This feature extends to modded games, provided all mods used are compatible across PC, Mac, and consoles, and the host's mod count remains below ten.

Xbox Series S users will finally experience the benefit of split-screen co-op, a feature previously unavailable on this console.

Further enhancements include a fully customizable photo mode and twelve new subclasses, significantly expanding gameplay options. Bug fixes and balance adjustments are also included, although some issues may persist. A comprehensive changelog for the stress test is accessible on the game's official website.
