As Larian Studios prepares to release the long-awaited Patch 8 to the public, select lucky fans are enjoying the massive Baldur's Gate 3 update early via its stress test – but not all will be happy to learn that it's just been patched,

Baldur's Gate 3 has a big stonking new patch on its way, which is currently in stress testing—and it's almost certainly doomed me to another honour mode playthrough because, well, I've got 12 new subclasses to tinker with and I'm a bit of a build fiend.

Baldur's Gate 3 has already nerfed one of Patch 8's new Cantrips, even though it hasn't been officially released yet.
