A new early access patch should soon be going live for Baldur's Gate III. That's pretty much all this here announcement tells us. Well, that, the fact that the updated game will take up around 100GB of your precious drive space, and some beta branch instructions.
Here it is sans the beta instructions part:
Hello, everyone! We hope you’re all keeping well.
It has been a whole festive period since we’ve spoken. We’ve not been resting on our yule logs, though. Patch 7 is almost here, and we’re so excited for you to play it we could explode. That isn’t necessarily a hint, we’re just very excited. We’ve got a Panel from Hell coming up to properly reveal it, but let’s just say it’s going to be….pretty cool.
Ok, that might have been a hint as to what will be in the show itself - just keep yourself calm and all will be revealed soon.
Now, on to the meat of the day: Patch 7 is on the horizon, weighing in at approximately 32GB (so clear some space from the digital platter!), so we have to remind you that any saves made on Patch 6 or prior will no longer be compatible when updated. With Patch 7 installed, the total install size for Baldur’s Gate 3 will be approximately 100GB, so make sure you have plenty free.
So, let’s talk branching! (If that is what you desire!) There are options for you if you want to continue saves from previous patches, or if you want to make sure you’re staying current. Check out the below instructions for whichever method suits you best[...]
