Baldur’s Gate 3 has a thriving community of modders. This makes the game, even months after its release, continue to grow steadily. In addition to patches and fixes from Larian, the most dedicated players are introducing all kinds of new content, making the game practically endless. Something that was already expected. And at Larian, aware of this, they have decided to help them in this regard.
After the release of the nineteenth hotfix, Larian has announced that they are working on some kind of plan to provide support for mods in a multiplatform way. This would mean that not only PC users, but also console users could benefit from them. Something very unusual in video games.
The reason why they have commented on it, even though they are still working on it, is because there have been several complaints from the modding community. Due to the amount of patches and hotfixes, modders are having trouble keeping up with updating their mods. This has led to active complaints about Larian’s frenetic ability to patch the game, forcing them to patch their mods.
Introducing cross-platform mod support seems like a good way to maintain a balance between both audiences. Those who want the game to be as polished as possible and those who want to use mods in it. A compromise that, hopefully, won’t take long to materialize.
