Patch 8 of Baldur's Gate 3 now has a release date and this is everything you need to know

The long-awaited patch 8 for Baldur’s Gate 3 is scheduled for release on April 15, 2025. This patch is considered one of the most significant updates to the game to date, as it will include a total of 12 new subclasses and a photo mode, promising to further enrich the gaming experience.

A definitive and international patch

According to historical data on patch releases from Larian Studios, these are usually published between 12:00 PM and 6:00 PM, Spanish mainland time, with estimates pointing to 4:00 PM for patch 8. This would mean that players on the west coast of the United States could expect the update around 8:00 AM PST, while those on the east coast could access it at 11:00 AM EST. This aligns with the company’s trend of releasing updates at convenient times for their international players.

It is important to highlight that patch 8 will be the last major update for Baldur’s Gate 3, as confirmed by Larian. Following this release, only bug fixes and minor adjustments will be provided. Expectations are high, especially after previous versions, such as patch 6 and patch 7, also brought significant improvements and content to the game.

The new photo mode will surely be a highly appreciated addition by players, providing the opportunity to capture memorable moments in their adventures through Faerûn. In addition to this, the introduction of new subclasses will expand character customization options, allowing players to explore different play styles and build unique characters.

With the outlook that is presented, Baldur’s Gate 3 fans should be on the lookout for what is coming on April 15 and prepare to revisit their save files.
