Baldur’s Gate 3 New Big Patch Fixes Cinematics, Made Improvements and More

Game developer Larian Studios released a big patch for video game Baldur’s Gate 3 adding more fixing, improvements, and a whole lot more of changes.

The newest patch is rather big this time around due to some content that fixes big cinematic scenes that looked a bit weird for some players. Cinematics that were missing before have now been restored with this patch. Also a certain song has been re-shot by the cinematics team, which makes it the cutscene look better now.

Larian Studios also released several new statistics about the game like players have petted a dog in the game for 400K times. A character named Gale has been romanced by 33 percent of players. Shadowheart came second with 31 percent of players. 1.3 percent of players chose to sleep alone.
