Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 director indicates Patch 7 will be final major update Larian StudiosLarian Studios CEO and Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 director Swen Vincke has called Patch 7, which will add official modding tools, a handover to the players, hinting that it\u2019ll be the game\u2019s final major content update. Vincke discussed the update and Larian\u2019s future plans during An Evening with Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, a masterclass hosted by the BAFTAs on June 14, 2024. As Eurogamer shared, the director is looking forward to implementing official mod support, saying \u201cOne of the big things for us, and the one that we\u2019re really working towards now, is the ability for players to mod [Baldur\u2019s Gate 3] themselves, because then they will be able to make their own things.\u201d Vincke went on to refer to the upcoming release of Patch 7, planned for September 2024, as \u201cthe point where we\u2019re going to say \u2018ok, now it\u2019s yours fully’\u201d to players by letting them create and add content to the game. But while Larian doesn\u2019t plan to completely end support for Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 in the immediate future, Vincke indicates players shouldn\u2019t expect more major content drops. Though the developers are currently \u201cstill working as if the game was just out,\u201d Vincke says \u201cyou will see the level of support diminished to really critical bug fixes\u201d after Patch 7\u2019s release. Of course, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 mods have been around since launch and range from new gameplay features \u2013 like raising the level cap and expanding party size \u2013 to restoring cut content and, for whatever reason, giving Astarion guns. However, Larian\u2019s official tools will make mods far easier to create and share. The update won\u2019t let fans create new story content, but console players will be able to use (though not make) mods for the first time. While the lack of additional Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 content will likely disappoint many players, it\u2019s not a surprise given that Larian already confirmed it won\u2019t be making DLC or Baldur\u2019s Gate 4. The studio is instead working on \u201ctwo very ambitious RPGs,\u201d at least one of which is teased in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. For now, Larian remains hard at work on Patch 7 and its modding tools, with Vincke saying it\u2019s been \u201chard trying to make that work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
