Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 3 Is Gigantic, Out Now on PS5 with Improved Performance

Following a very short delay of roughly one day, Patch 3 for Baldur’s Gate 3 is available to download now on PS5. And Larian Studios wasn’t lying — it really is a massive update (that weighs in at just 8GB, thankfully), making all sorts of adjustments to gameplay systems, balancing, and technical performance.

The patch notes are unsurprisingly gigantic and detailed — to the point where they’re too big to paste into this article — so we’ve gone ahead and cherrypicked the broader changes.

Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 3 Patch Notes

  • A Magic Mirror that lets you change your appearance is now available at camp!

  • Improved performance in the Lower City. More to come!

  • Loads of specific combat adjustments.
