Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch Notes: August 31

Larian Studios has been hard at work updating Baldur’s Gate 3 since it released on August 3! The studio released its second major patch since launch and there are tons of improvements included!

I’ve got the full set of patch notes below except for those that have spoiler tags placed by developers on them! There were a number of bugfixes and changes that included spoilers, but you can still view them at your own risk via Steam! You can also take a look at the first round of patch notes (sans spoilers) below, with full notes including spoiler tags here.

  • interesting equipment?)
