Baldur’s Gate 3 patch adds official in-game mod support

The long-awaited Patch 7 for Baldur’s Gate 3 is now live. The update adds new, gruesome cinematics for some of the game’s evil endings, new legendary actions for Honor Mode encounters, and official in-game mod support.

However, with Patch 7 comes a big ole asterisk from the game’s maker, Larian Studios. The patch is currently only available for PC, meaning that players will be unable to load cross-platform save files from PC on their console versions. PC / Mac multiplayer is also disabled. Larian says that it intends to launch Patch 7 on consoles and Mac sometime in October, so if you like to hop between desktop and console to play BG3, you’ll have to wait about a month. The compatibility issues can be avoided by simply declining to update the game on PC but with all the other Patch 7 improvements, that might prove a difficult choice.

The official mod support will allow players to browse, download, and manage user-made mods directly in the game. Enterprising players will also be able to use the new toolkit to create their own mods that will work across PC and console (once Patch 7 is available on consoles).

Patch 7 also includes the requisite host of tweaks, improvements, and bug fixes. You can check out all the specifics here.
