Having recently released a new major early access update for Baldur's Gate III, Larian Studios now brings us this here hotfix that deals with a number of crashes, adds some extra polish to a few of the game's cinematics, and fixes some miscellaneous UI issues.
Here are the patch notes:
Hello everyone,
We’ve got a new hotfix for you today, taking care of multiple crashes, bugs, and issues. Sometimes, corpses get nostalgic for those halcyon days of being less corpse-y. When this happens, they tend to stand bolt upright in an act of what can only be described as undead defiance. We’ve told them to act their age (dead being their age), hopefully leading to fewer weird ‘Didn’t I kill you already?’ moments.
As ever, thank you for playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and reporting these issues to us through all our channels. We really appreciate it!
