Baldur's Gate 3 first patch was released last week and fixed over a thousand bugs, but Larian aren't done. In a new post on Steam, Larian have laid out their future plans for updates - including performance improvements, a new Karlach epilogue, and more bug fixes.
It sounds as if act three is going to be the biggest beneficiary of some of the above. "We know that Act 3’s performance isn’t as good as the first two acts, but the good news is that Patch 2 is bringing major performance improvements to the entire game, but more specifically to Act 3 where you’ll feel it the most," says the update.

They're therefore going to start expanding the epilogues with patch 2, beginning with "a new optional ending with Karlach. It's fiery, poginant, and gives her the ending she deserves."
Finally, Larian say that they're working on a feature to allow you to remove co-op party members who join your campaign, and a way to change your characters' appearance
