Baldur’s Gate 3 hotfix fixes NPCs who know things they shouldn’t — full patch notes

Baldur’s Gate 3 is still in early access, which means it’s continual getting new content. The Barbarian class was revealed in February, and the Gnome race will be playable in the future too. Meanwhile, developer Larian Studios is pushing small patches and hotfixes fairly frequently.

The most recent of these fixes a pretty big problem. Sneaking around and full-on trespassing are valid tactics in a Dungeons & Dragons-based game, but it’s no fun if NPCs magically know that you did it. “Omniscience is neat, but not if it leads to bloodshed,” as the hotfix notes say on Steam. That was happening in the game’s Druid Grove area — NPCs would go hostile because they somehow knew of your past transgressions. That’s been fixed, along with a number of crashes. You can see the full patch notes at the bottom of this article.

As for the full game, Baldur’s Gate 3 currently has no set release date. The team is currently targeting a PC release for sometime in 2023. Current-gen console versions are up in the air, but we already know that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions aren’t happening.
