The third major patch for Baldur's Gate 3 is now being rolled out, and it includes the long-awaited Magic Mirror feature.
Players can now change their character's appearance by finding the Magic Mirror in camp. Everything other than race and subrace of your character can be altered — though it also can't be used to get rid of any «cosmetic modifications that are a consequence of your gameplay choices». Also, origin characters, hirelings and full illithids can't use the Magic Mirror.
Patch three has also added full support for the game on Mac, with Larian Studios recommending any players on Mac remove any mods and reinstall the game fresh before playing.
In classic Larian fashion, the patch notes once again exceed Steam's text limit and contain some entries which made me chuckle. Spoiler warning — here's a few of my favourites below.
That last one is by far the most important.
Bulking out the majority of the patch notes are fixes, balancing tweaks, and adjustments to smooth the game's experience out, particularly towards the latter stages of the campaign. Platform cross-play is not included in this patch, but Larian has stated it's on the roadmap for Baldur's Gate 3.
You can read the full patch notes from Larian on its website.
The recent Microsoft leak revealed that Microsoft estimated it would cost $5m to get Baldur's Gate 3 on Game Pass, with the company dubbing the game a «second-run Stadia PC RPG». Larian responded in understanding, with director of publishing Michael Douse stating it «comes with the genre».

In Baldur’s Gate 3, decisions matter, but players have discovered a way to avoid some negative consequences of recruiting the Drow Paladin companion Minthara by transforming her into a sheep. Be warned, there are some spoilers ahead for events in the game’s first and second acts, so new players should read with caution.
Life may be full of regrets, but if one of those regrets is that you decided to call your Baldur's Gate 3 character Bumfart the Third in a moment of weakness, there's some good news: the game's latest hotfix will finally let you change their ill-conceived name.
Baldur’s Gate 3 patch notes have arrived for BG3 hotfix 9, and this latest update to Larian Studios’ chart-topping Dungeons and Dragons RPG includes some very welcome additions. You’ll now be able to change names at the Magic Mirror, if you decide your Tav’s chosen one no longer feels right, and you can even create custom looks for your hirelings to create the party of your dreams.
Just days after deploying hotfix 8 for Baldur’s Gate 3, Larian Studios has announced that hotfix 9 is now live. It features an array of fixes for bugs and crashes while extending the Magic Mirror’s functionality to Hirelings. If you want to adjust their appearance (within limits), that’s now possible.

The voice actors behind Baldur's Gate 3's origin characters—Astarion, Gale, Karlach, Shadowheart, Wyll, and Lae'zel—gathered for a two-episode D&D game that was livestreamed this past weekend. An hour into the first 160-minute episode, I can confidently recommend it to fans of our favorite new RPG. I don't know if I'll make get to the end of the whole session anytime soon, but it's a charming bit of fan service. Replays are available on YouTube, Twitch, and as podcasts.
When learning a new game, it happens to the best of us. Sometimes, there’s a mechanic we just can’t quite figure out. In the PS5 version of Baldur’s Gate 3, one of the less intuitive features of the game is how to split and regroup your party without talking to each individual party member.
Baldur’s Gate 3 isn’t short on NPCs, companions and otherwise, but fans are now clamoring for the addition of a new character. And it’s all thanks to the recent live-action Dungeons and Dragons session which saw the game’s origin characters acting out their roles.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is now available in full release for Mac users with the latest patch. The big update features a slew of fixes and improvements, along with customization improvements.
