After a wait that stretched over half a year since the launch of Patch 7, Larian Studios has finally unveiled the eighth and concluding update for Baldur’s Gate 3. This patch brings a batch of long-awaited features, including cross-play, a photo mode, and split screen gameplay for the Xbox Series S.
