New Subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8: A PC Gaming Guide

Patch #8 for Baldur's Gate 3 is shaping up to be one of the most eagerly awaited updates yet, promising to bring exciting new features like cross-play capabilities, a much-anticipated photo mode, and 12 brand-new subclasses to the game. In a recent video released by Larian Studios, players were treated to an exclusive preview of four of these subclasses: the Bard of the College of Enchantment, Barbarian of the Path of the Giant, Cleric of the Death Domain, and Druid of the Circle of Stars.

As the game undergoes stress-testing, with additional rounds of sign-ups available, the community is buzzing with anticipation for the official rollout. While the exact release date for Patch #8 remains a mystery, Larian Studios keeps the excitement alive by engaging with fans through sneak peeks, such as this latest video, which is Part 1 of a series set to explore all 12 new subclasses.

Fans can look forward to two more trailers that will showcase the remaining subclasses, providing ample time to get ready for the upcoming changes. The stress-test phase, which began in January, also introduced a major update featuring the new photo mode. As the final major patch, Patch #8 will mark the end of the game's post-launch development cycle, leaving the community eager to see what Larian Studios has in store for the future.
