Larian Studios has revealed a few features coming in Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 6 alongside its colossal file size.The developer made a series of posts on X/Twitter to tease the update, which is due sometime this week, and revealed its 21GB download. Those on PC and Steam Deck will need around 150GB of free space to download Patch 6, though Larian said those short on space can uninstall the full game and redownload the patched version. Mac players will receive the Patch at a later date, which is yet to be announced.Though Patch 6 will no doubt feature a lot more given its size, Larian teased a handful of changes the update will make to the beloved Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game. The first is a time-saving change, as players will be able to dismiss a recruited companion while recruiting another in camp, instead of having to do these both separately.We’re also here to help you practice some self-love this month, by making sure you’re the star of the show ⭐️With Patch 6, automatically triggered dialogue will now try to prioritise your avatar as the main speaker, so your party members should stop stealing the limelight! pic.twitter.com/dy1Ai5TJ1i— Baldur’s Gate 3 (@baldursgate3) February 13, 2024 Two skills, Shield Bash and Rebuke the Mighty, have both been fixed too, so Patch 6 will have players’ passive abilities working properly again.
