The latest update for Baldur's Gate 3 has arrived in the form of Hotfix #20, bringing with it what may be the beginning of the end of problems centering on Minthara. Though relatively small, the update is packed with fixes for issues that have been plaguing Baldur's Gate 3 players since the release of Patch 6.
Following the release of Patch 6 on February 16, Baldur's Gate 3 players reported experiencing more problems with the game than they'd had previously. Both Hotfixes #18 and #19 addressed an issue with trading in which merchants' gold wouldn't load, preventing players from buying and selling in-game. The newest Baldur's Gate 3 patch also caused its share of graphics glitches, most notably for a few of the animations it introduced, which the previous hotfix also sought to address.
Perhaps the biggest item to come out of this latest hotfix for Baldur's Gate 3 involves the popular companion Minthara, who will now follow players again in Act II and Act III, and leave the active party if dismissed. The newest update also addresses issues with players becoming stuck in combat due to the environment never taking its turn. Hotfix #20 marks the first time Mac users will have an update at the same time as users on PC and console, although the update is currently delayed for Xbox due to a previously announced issue with its stability on the console.
As with all of the game's updates, Hotfix 20 comes with the disclaimer that it may cause Baldur's Gate 3 to become incompatible with any mods players may be using. Mod instability caused by the release of updates for the game was a topic of contention that came to a head following the release of Baldur's Gate 3 Hotfix 19.
Prior to the developers receiving threats over the previous updates, Larian Studios had announced cross-platform mod support for Baldur's Gate 3 would be coming sometime later in 2024. No official timeline has been given as to when players can expect this support, but in the meantime, Larian Studios will continue to regularly patch Baldur's Gate 3, which may disrupt some mod users' experiences.
Baldur's Gate 3 is a Dungeons and Dragons inspired RPG developed and published by Larian Studios. Featuring both a single player and cooperative element, players create their character by selecting a starting class, take on quests, level up, and engage in turn-based combat using the D&D 5th edition rule set.
