Larian Studios has released a brand new hotfix for Baldur's Gate 3, addressing pesky script bugs while also bringing additional updates to the Xbox version.
Hotfix 22 is a relatively small patch but a significant one as it not only introduces some much-needed quality-of-life changes but, perhaps most notably, implements former updates to the Xbox Series X|S version, which launched in early December.
Specifically, the version now features hotfixes 20 and 21, which Larian says should now resolve any issues surrounding cross-saves as well as improved instructions for players.
Alongside Xbox-specific crash fixes, the studio has also addressed some ongoing problems regarding everyone's favorite grumpy Drow, Minthara. Recently, players have been experiencing some annoying bugs that have hindered their game, including one issue that would have her repeating her thoughts about Gale in Act 3.
The other bug was a little more complicated and found Minthara breaking up with Dark Urge players who had rejected Bhaal later in their playthrough. Initially, players thought that this was intentional, but as it turns out, there was an «issue where legacy dialogue had been enabled unintentionally as part of another line of fixes» which would prompt Minthara to end things with the player.
Both bugs have thankfully now been fixed, so no more ranting Minthara or unexpected breakups. You can check out the full patch notes below.

When we sat down to chat with Chris Bullock, lead animator on open-world roguelike Hyper Light Breaker at developer Heart Machine, nobody had beaten its GDC demo yet. The show's recent demo was an exciting up-close look at what's quickly become my personal most-anticipated open-world game of the year, and Bullock's comments on some of the game's nitty-gritty details have only deepened my suspicion that it could be the biggest roguelike of 2024 in more ways than one.
