All Patch Notes for Baldur’s Gate 3 Hotfix #14

Hotfix 14 for Baldur’s Gate 3 squashes a handful of crashes, including a bug that meant the exploding bibberbangs could just straight crash the game. With the game now available on Xbox, Larian Studios has three platforms to keep on top of. And four of the issues fixed by this patch are Xbox-exclusive issues, including one that relates to cross-platform saves.

“We have a new hotfix for you today, fixing up a few crashes, blockers, and bugs. This Hotfix also brings Patch 5 to Mac. Go forth and enjoy the epilogue, Mac players!

Bibberbangs! Get too close to them, and you’ll feel the explosive results. Having a bibberbang crash the game in a specific situation? Well, that’s perhaps a little too explosive for our liking. It’s not the last patch either, Larian has confirmed more patches and hotfixes are in the works.

Here are the patch notes, with everything the hotfix, er, fixes.

Thank you for taking the time to submit these issues to us. If you have any bugs to report, please reach out to our support team. Thank you for playing Baldur’s Gate 3!”
