Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8: New Subclasses Unveiled

Patch #8 for Baldur's Gate 3 is shaping up to be one of the most eagerly awaited updates yet, promising to introduce cross-play capabilities, a photo mode, and an impressive addition of 12 brand-new subclasses. In a recent video released by Larian Studios, players were treated to an exclusive sneak peek at four of these subclasses: the enchanting Bard of the College of Enchantment, the formidable Barbarian of the Path of the Giant, the ominous Cleric of the Death Domain, and the celestial Druid of the Circle of Stars.

With stress-testing currently in full swing and additional rounds of sign-ups available, the community is buzzing with anticipation for the official rollout. Although the exact release date for Patch #8 remains a mystery, Larian Studios keeps the excitement alive by engaging with fans through these sneak peeks. This latest video marks Part 1 of a series that will explore all 12 new subclasses in detail.

Fans can look forward to two more trailers that will showcase the remaining subclasses, providing ample time to prepare for the upcoming changes. The ongoing stress-test phase, which began in January, also introduced a major update featuring the much-anticipated photo mode. As the final major patch, Patch #8 will mark the end of the game’s post-launch development cycle, leaving fans both excited and curious about what the future holds for Baldur's Gate 3.
