Larian Studios announced on Steam that a stress test for Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 will begin in January. This test will be available on PC via Steam, and on Xbox and PlayStation consoles. Mac and GOG users will not have access to the stress test. Registration is currently open.
Larian plans to thoroughly test Patch 8 for bugs and gameplay issues before its official release. They are particularly interested in testing the cross-play functionality, which they describe as a significant undertaking. Players are encouraged to register and participate in cross-play campaigns, finding groups through the Larian Studios Discord server.
While Patch 8 marks the final major update for Baldur's Gate 3, Larian committed to ongoing support for modders, promising substantial future updates and enhanced modding tools to facilitate player-created content. Since the September release of official modding tools, players have downloaded over 70 million modules and uploaded over 3,000 mods.
