Baldur's Gate 3 Rolls Out immersive Cleaning Feature with Other Significant Adjustments

The ever-evolving game Baldur's Gate 3 has received another substantial update. This latest patch follows the trend of previous ones, delivering a plethora of finer adjustments to enhance gameplay quality. One feature that stands out allows players to employ soaps and sponges to remove ugly stains, blood, and dirt off party members, maintaining their appearance for upcoming adventures.

Notable modifications include now being able to search with Scratch for just about anything and immunity to detection by guards when attacking someone whilst invisible—yes, you wicked player. Additionally, when securing new recruits, you can customize their look to your liking. An advancement concerning accessibility offers support for protanopia, deuteranopia, or tritanopia types of color blindness. Upon activation, differentiating factions, portrait frames, character outlines, and more become more manageable. Other refined features include improved closure of quests and restriction of certain NPCs from shooting through solid objects. Detailed information regarding changes in the patch can be accessed through this link or from Larian Studio's Steam page.

Meanwhile, Larian Studios confirmed that Baldur's Gate 3 is set to launch on Xbox Series X|S within the year.
