Baldur’s Gate 3 gets another new update – Patch notes for November 17 hotfix

Baldur’s Gate 3 fans will be happy to hear that Larian has released a new update designed to fix some annoying problems with the popular role-playing game. The new Baldur’s Gate 3 Hotfix is available now, and fixes multiple game crashes, dialogue problems and other progression blockers. You’ll also be pleased to hear that you can now use soap within the game.

More importantly, however, Larian has fixed an issue with the game freezing after a reaction to a spell that hits you with multiple projectiles.

That’s on top of a fix for a crash after using a reaction that causes an attack against a dead creature, plus an issue causing you to get stuck in certain dialogues and unable to continue.

Gale’s romance scene has also been fixed, which means you’ll no longer see it play out in a black void.

Elsewhere, Larian has also fixed multiple dialogue issues, as well as behaviour problems and other annoying bugs.
