Larian Studios will release the latest Baldur’s Gate 3 patch next week.
According to the studio’s latest hell group stream, patch five Baldur’s Gate 3 It will include major updates and improvements, while expanding the “breadth and depth” of the game.
Next week, you will find new “game-changing mechanics”, a large number of combat and artificial intelligence improvements, visual upgrades to weapons and cutscenes, greater focus on role-playing, and more content about owl cubs. With the update, you will also take a “tempting step” towards discovering the mystery of the Shadow Heart.
The full notes for Patch 5 will be released on Tuesday, July 13. But some highlights are provided:
- Active scrolling system
- During the skill check, instead of letting you be at the mercy of the RNG gods during the skill check, patch 5 ensures that the player now has more agency rights. Active rolls allow players to change the odds in their favor by applying spells and rewards to the rolls. In addition, players can now see their modifiers and status effects directly in the UI instead of calculating in the background.
- Background target
- Players can always choose the “background”-folk heroes, followers, sea urchins, etc. on the character creation screen. Now, each character has its own series of secret mini-tasks based on these characters, called background targets. Therefore, whenever a folk hero does something folk and heroic, or a sea urchin does something naughty, they will be rewarded. This is a new way to encourage role-playing, and players can directly benefit from playing their role in any given scene.
- Camp supplies
- Camp resources is a new feature that allows you to think more strategically about when to activate long rest. Now for the camp, you first need supplies. Do you know all the food and debris you found in the game? Well, from now on, you need to use it to prepare for a full rest. Finally, a large number of dead fish for you. There is also a mini camp in this patch, which is a context-dependent environment that provides an alternative way to return to the riverside headquarters. From the church near Ravaged Beach to Underdark, we recreated each landmark as its own isolated location, which you can visit when you are ready for a long rest.
Larian also made “serious adjustments” to artificial intelligence, and you will find that the enemy is smarter and more resourceful than before. They will now pick up discarded weapons, and enemies such as goblins will give each other health potions.
Other improvements in Patch 5 include a non-lethal attack mode, click-and-click dialogue, and new story content centered on “a party member”.
Likewise, the full patch notes will be released on Tuesday the 13th.
