Larian Confirms Baldur’s Gate 3’s Patch 7 is Dropping Next Week!

Hey there! If you’re a Baldur’s Gate 3 fan like me, you’ve probably been waiting on the edge of your seat for the next big update— BG3 Patch 7.

Well, the wait is almost over! Swen Vincke, the genius behind Larian Studios, just spilled the beans at PAX West—Patch 7 is dropping next week.

Yes, you read that right. We’re finally getting some juicy new content after months of anticipation and endless playtesting.

First things first, let’s talk about the good stuff coming your way. The headliner? Official mod support! This isn’t your typical update—it’s more like a surprise party where all the guests bring gifts, and you get to unwrap them all.

While it won’t give us the full campaign-building toolkit we had in Divinity: Original Sin 2, it’s still a game-changer.

We’re talking easier ways to create and install custom classes, new UI elements, spells, and some sweet quality-of-life tweaks.

But—and there’s always a but—get ready for some hiccups as well.

Patch 7 might throw a wrench in your mods and modded saves until the creators play catch-up specially if you are so far using mods installed from third party sites like nexus.

So, maybe its not the best time to get too cozy with your current setup just yet.

Another big thing that this mod will bring out is – Evil Endings.

Now, for all you evil masterminds out there, you’re in for a real treat.

The patch is also bringing a spine-chilling revamp to the game’s evil endings.

If you love playing the bad guy, the new cutscenes are going to be right up your alley.

It offers Evil path for both your Dark Urge character and non-Dark Urge Origin characters.

The “default” evil endings is like what you’d see in Knights of the Old Republic—your character goes full dark side, enslaving others and building a twisted empire.

But if you’re taking the Dark Urge route, buckle up—it’s about to get grim.

I am already imagining my Durge unleashing chaos, leaving a path of destruction so intense, it would make Elden Ring’s Frenzied Flame ending look like a Sunday picnic.

So if you are still curious about what’s coming next week in Patch 7, Larian’s dropped some teaser clips to whet your appetite.

One shows a scene that seems all innocent—a character picking apples—until you realize there’s some creepy psychic control going on.

Another clip takes you deeper into the Dark Urge’s bleak journey through a world that’s falling apart.

You can get full scoop on BG3 Evil endings in this article.

But if being a villain isn’t your style. Patch 7 isn’t just about embracing your dark side.

There are ongoing quality-of-life improvements, tweaks to how the game reacts to your choices, and some interesting changes to the side character Alfira.

As for me, I’m back on that Honour mode grind.

You know the drill—almost 80 hours in, feeling invincible, and then BAM! Game over.

It’s like stubbing your toe on the same piece of furniture, but this time, I’m determined to finish before Patch 7 shakes things up.
