Baldur's Gate 3's Hotfix 11 is now live on PS5 (the second in ten days, if you're counting), again quashing a swathe of bugs and making your journey through Larian Studios' epic RPG that much smoother. The changes primarily address technical issues that invariably arise in a game as interconnected as BG3. Astarion fans will be glad to know the studio is aware of an issue with the stylish sadist's kissing animations, so please look forward to a fix for that.
In other BG3 news, a lovely two-disc physical edition has finally been revealed, and expectations for Larian's next game are already sky high. The title looks set to sweep The Game Awards, leading the nomination pack alongside Alan Wake 2.
You can peruse the complete list of changes implemented by Hotfix 11 below:
- You can now use soaps encountered in savegames before Patch 4.
- Fixed the game sometimes freezing indefinitely after a reaction to a spell that hits you with multiple projectiles.
- Fixed a crash after using a reaction that causes an attack against a dead creature.
- Fixed an issue causing you to get stuck in certain dialogues, unable to continue.
- Fixed a blocker that could occur when trying to Long Rest.
- Dominated followers will now follow the party as expected after loading a save game.
- Fixed Gale's romance scene playing in what looks like a black void.
- Fixed a Dark Urge flashback accidentally teleporting you to the Lower City.
- The Cursed Skulls in Jannath's Estate are now vulnerable to Force and Radiant damage.
- Fixed an issue that prevented certain characters from executing their behaviours.
- Fixed citizens and refugees in Baldur's Gate sometimes jittering about the place or not using their proper animations.
- Fixed some visual artefacts appearing at camp in relation to Dark Urge and Karlach dialogues. This also solved the bloodstain REDACTED suddenly becoming larger after loading a save game.
- Wyll and Minthara should now properly kiss a second time without the need to retrigger the dialogue.
- Fixed an issue where a companion's camp night dialogue could be replaced by a different dialogue that couldn't trigger during a previous night.

It appears BG3 is now also available for trial with PS Plus Premium.
Honestly, I cannot stop gushing about this game. Every time I put it on I stumble across something or have an interaction that just astounds me. The narrative is flawless. It’s been a long time since a game got me this deep.
@Ward_ting It’s just soooo good. I’m still learning new mechanics and spell uses 120 hours in and have barely even scratched the surface of multi classing. I know when I wrap up this playthrough I am going to dive straight back in to a new game to apply everything I have learnt.
@GeeEssEff there is just so much to it! The far reaching impact of every decision is amazing. I haven’t touched multi classing either, I’ve been playing as Shadowheart and kept her relatively as is. My next play through id definitely create a unique character. I’m curious how Shadowheart would really respond to situations when not playing as her. The replay value here is insane.
@Ward_ting yea there are some big moments in the game that can play out very differently if she is there, not there, there but not the protagonist.
technically the game isn't perfect. The times I found out I left on of my followers behind or one doesn't like to jump is a lot, but the game is so ***** awesome that I lovingly wave it away. I'm 127 happy hours in and still feel sick I made a pact with the devil. When I'm finished I do a replay or 2 for sure.
@Tielo yea leaving party behind is definitely my biggest gripe!
After completing it once already, I'm still immersed in 3 other playthroughs! 1 durge play, coop with a friend, 1 good guy sorcerer and 1 solo, tactician durge. Like to try different classes and combos, and approaches, and after 500 hours (really), I'm still uncovering new things or finding great class combos and strategies.
Only issue I've had, was I didn't long rest enough the 1st time around, and have missed out on lots of juicy camp scenarios! I fully recommend you rest all the time, to see what develops back at camp!
I know I’m gonna love this game. Articles like this make me happy, reassuring me that the game is gonna be even better to play when I can afford to play it, making the wait more bearable. Just have to wait for a sale (it’s $94 in Canada — before taxes — just for the standard digital version! 😖).
