Explore the Latest Subclasses Added to Baldur's Gate 3 in Patch 8 PC Gaming Mag

Baldur's Gate 3's highly anticipated Patch #8 is on the horizon, bringing with it a wave of exciting new features. Cross-play, a much-requested photo mode, and a whopping 12 new subclasses are all part of the package. Larian Studios recently offered a sneak peek at four of these subclasses in a video: the Bard of the College of Enchantment, the Barbarian of the Path of the Giant, the Cleric of the Death Domain, and the Druid of the Circle of Stars.

Currently undergoing stress testing—with further sign-up opportunities available—the community eagerly awaits the official release date, which remains unannounced. This initial video is just Part 1 of a series showcasing all 12 subclasses, with two more trailers planned to reveal the remaining options. Players will have ample time to familiarize themselves with these additions before the update launches.

The stress test, which began in January, already introduced a significant update including the photo mode. Patch #8 marks the final major post-launch update for Baldur's Gate 3, concluding a significant development cycle and leaving players wondering what the future holds.
