Baldur’s Gate 3 new patch update
The fifth patch for Baldur’s Gate 3 has been released, aiming to enhance the gaming experience for players on PS5 and PC. Larian Studios is committed to resolving bugs, glitches, and multiplayer issues in a timely manner. This patch brings exciting news to those interested in Minthara, as it resolves an issue that previously blocked access to some of her dialogue.
Players will now have new conversations with Minthara in Act Three, allowing them to delve deeper into their relationship with the character and discover more about her backstory. Depending on support, romantic Mintara can progress your relationship and unlock additional dialogue, both interactive and non-interactive, showcasing the complexity of this romantic storyline.
However, Mintara wasn’t the only one who had something to say about your romantic getaway. Other companions in your party may comment on your relationship, and things can get dangerous if they are also romantically involved with you. PS5 players will also benefit from the patch, as it resolves graphics issues, audio issues, and on-screen keyboard-related crashes on HDR TVs, ensuring a smoother gaming experience on this platform.

Baldur’s Gate III gameplay
Baldur’s Gate 3 is a role-playing video game that offers both single-player and cooperative multiplayer. In the game, players can create and control one or more characters and assemble a team (which can include pre-made characters) to embark on an adventure and explore the game’s storyline. In addition, players can choose to team up with others online to enhance the multiplayer cooperative gaming experience.
The game’s combat system is turn-based and follows the rules of Dungeons and Dragons fifth edition, adding depth and strategy to the combat. This combat style is similar to previous games from Larian Studios, such as Divinity: Original Sin and Divinity: Original Sin II.
Baldur’s Gate III plot
The game offers a branching plot in which key story elements remain consistent, but details and side quests can vary greatly depending on the player’s choices. Players can create their own character from scratch, choosing from six pre-made Origin Characters or selecting a customizable seventh Origin Character. Each of these characters has a unique quest line and playstyle. The game is divided into three acts:
Act 1:
The story begins with the protagonist waking up on an illithid ship with an illithid tadpole implanted in his body that can turn people into mind flayers. The ship was attacked by Githyanki warriors, causing it to crash-land in Faerûn. While searching for a cure for Tadpole, the protagonist also encounters other survivors with similar pain.
Act 2:
The action centers around Moonrise Tower and the surrounding lands, which were once peaceful but are now engulfed in unnatural darkness. The protagonist explores the area, searching for a cure and solving the curse that plagues the land.
Act 3:
The final scene takes place in Baldur’s Gate and the outskirts of Livington. The main plot involves the remaining antagonists trying to pit the protagonists against each other. The companions also find closure for their individual quests, with the story culminating in a battle against the Absolute and illithid threats.
