The aura surrounding Baldur’s Gate 3 shows no sign of dimming. Crowned Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2023, the RPG has reinvigorated the genre, drawing in even those who once felt intimidated by its depth and complexity. And the journey won’t end there. A television adaptation is currently in development under Craig Mazin (Chernobyl, The Last of Us) for HBO. Yet Larian Studios has no intention of coasting on past success. The studio continues to actively support its critically acclaimed title and has just rolled out a much-needed update.
Your saves are finally safe in Baldur’s Gate 3
Although Larian recently presented its next project at The Game Awards 2023, the studio hasn’t abandoned Baldur’s Gate 3. With a game this vast and complex, technical hiccups are almost inevitable, especially after years of updates and free content additions since its early access debut. That means regularly combing through rogue lines of code and lingering bugs that can disrupt the experience.
Unfortunately, some players have run into a particularly frustrating issue. Picture this: you’ve sunk dozens of hours into your campaign, pushed your party to the brink of Act 3, and then everything grinds to a halt. A technical error could corrupt save files of Baldur’s Gate 3, making them impossible to load and blocking progression between Acts 2 and 3. Not exactly the kind of plot twist fans were hoping for. Larian has now addressed the problem.
In a surprise announcement, the studio confirmed that a new update for Baldur’s Gate 3 is now available across all platforms. The latest patch aims to fix the corrupted save issue and should also reduce crashes overall. In short, your adventures in Baldur’s Gate 3 should now be far safer. If you were hesitating to jump back in, this might be the perfect time to return to Faerûn.
