Baldur’s Gate 3‘s first patch, aptly titled Patch 1, is officially live. This brings the BG3 version number to 4.1.1.3669438, so make sure you’re on the proper version when you play next! It’s important to do so because Patch 1 addresses over 1,000 bugs as well as introduces some balance changes and fixes some flow issues while playing.
According to Larian Studios, this patch tackles some visual bugs while adding some more post-launch polish. Enemies should no longer spot you when they shouldn’t be able to, and random items should no longer defy gravity and float. Perhaps most importantly, romancing Shadowheart has been fixed meaning those who could not reach the conclusion of romancing her should now be able to. Thank Shar, am I right?
Larian also confirmed that Patch 2 is right around the corner and will feature significant performance improvements.
Finally, we got some more fun stats about player decisions in Baldur’s Gate 3 so far. The most played class is Paladin followed by Sorcerer, and the least played is Cleric. Humans and Elves are the most chosen race followed by Half-Elf. On the flip side, Dwarf, Gnome, Githyanki and Halfling are the least played.
Looking through the patch notes, I see quite a bit of love being given to Act 3 which is honestly where it’s needed the most. It’s great to see Larian putting in the effort to make Baldur’s Gate 3 even better when it’s already so insanely good.
Larian has provided some highlights from the Patch 1 patch notes, which we’ve included below minus the spoilery ones. If you want to view the full patch notes you can do so here.
