Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7 Arrives Today on PS5 – PlayStation.Blog.

Hello everyone. This is Luke Karmali from the Larian Studios team and I bring you the exciting news that Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7 is now officially available for PlayStation 5 today. There's a pretty substantial buffet before us and a lot of ground to cover, so let's dive in.

Firstly, the cowards among you will be pleased to know that Patch 7 brings a whopping 13 new cinematic Evil Endings, including some unique ones for each Origin character. Are you dissatisfied with how much the Sword Coast has suffered up to this point? Well, now's your chance to make the world right… or wrong, as it turns out.

In addition to this, we have revamped our split-screen gaming offering for couch co-op play. Dynamic split screen means that each side of the screen will merge as you approach and split again as you go on your own adventures. No more arguing about which direction to take!

But the addition we're especially interested in talking about today is our new Mod Manager, which allows console players to experience a new kind of mutable chaos created by community members like you.

With mods ranging from the crazy to the macabre, we can appreciate that it can be a little overwhelming for some to know where to start. With that in mind, we're here to offer a roundup of five of our favorites, showing what's possible with this latest set of tools.

Five innovative mods to get you started

1) Party limit adjustable by PixellBytes

If you've been suffering from option paralysis when it comes to building your party, rejoice! Our first mod adds spells that allow you to adjust the number of companions in your party, up to 16, and they can even work in multiplayer. Aren't you happy that your companions swear only their swords, bows and axes to you? Well, now you can add their daggers, flails, glaives, staves, salamis, and even their lutes at the same time. Speaking of which…

2) Xelphos Ritual Underwear

Crackers. Parakeet smugglers. Banana hammocks. Words that undoubtedly evoke a series of images in your mind. But what if they could conjure something more than that? What if they unlocked your latent ability to read minds, shapeshift, or even speak to the dead? Well, wonder no more, as this mod realizes this potential through the Golden Ritualist Underwear Chest. We promise, it's anything but pants.

3) Underdark Dice by elliegreenart

Spores, spores, spores! How do you like them, why don't you like them!? Amidst a wide variety of options for dice reskins, it's these Underdark-themed beauties that really caught our (fung-)eyes. While there are other dice available, we don't think there is much to improve. Okay, I'll stop now.

4) Playable Kuo-Toa Race by Gonzalo_Marcos

Of all the countless races that inhabit Faerun, there is one in particular that never fails to leave an impression; You could even say: BOOOAL! We are talking, of course, about the enigmatic Kuo-Toa. Just look at his face: what is he thinking? What does he know?! Well, wonder no more, as these questions and many more may finally have answers. And remember: where there's a gill, there's a way.

5) Xhevo Mystic Class

Can't choose between the initial offering of 12 classes and 46 subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3? Well, the choice just got even tougher, with a bunch of new classes being added as I write thanks to our illustrious modders. While there are some very interesting variations offered on the Paladin and Warlock fronts, this version of the Unearthed Arcana Mystic class is a great place to start.

This is just a sample of everything on offer with new mods being added all the time. We hope you're inspired to try some of them… and maybe even consider writing some yourself!

Who knows what chaos you will be able to cause with your own hands?
