The word "kiss" occurs 10 times in the latest blog post for the seventh major Baldur's Gate 3 patch, while the word "bug" occurs 14 times. I think this ratio captures how BG3 updates at large walk the line between dealing with stuff like progression blockers, and sating the inexhaustible horniness of the fanbase. There's more to patch 7 than glitch-hunting and snogs, however. Due in September, it introduces dynamic splitscreen functionality, expansions for Honour mode, modding tools, new endings for evil playthroughs, and a brace of tweaks for Origin characters.
Let's start with the splitscreen stuff. Baldur's Gate 3 patch 7 will introduce dynamic split-screen merging when co-op players are close to each other, "because the power of friendship transcends all obstacles, including screen partitions". You can toggle this directly from the HUD or within the RPG's settings, in or out of combat. Adding to the intimacy, the patch allows for banter between characters assigned to different people in multiplayer, rather than it being limited to characters controlled by a single player.
As for Honour Mode, Patch 7 doles out Legendary Actions - that is, mode-exclusive special unique actions that become available in the right circumstances - to more creatures, "including the bulette, everyone's favourite neighbourhood surgeon, Malus Thorm, and githyanki Ch'r'ai Tska'an, Ch'r'ai Har'rak, and Ptaris". Ever the champion of the people, Larian have also given local hobgoblin Dror Ragzlin an Arachnid Compulsion ability that lets him sic a bunch of pit spiders on you.
As for the modding toolkit, this lets you fiddle with: items including weapons and armour; cosmetic stuff such as hair and textures; races, classes and subclasses, including variations on existing classes and their capacities; the user interface and, most appetising of all, the dice you'll roll during those nail-biting skillchecks.
