Baldur's Gate 3 update streamlines party management
Larian Studios has announced more fixes coming to Baldur's Gate 3 with Patch 6, as well as its beefy install size.
Due some point this week, Larian already let us know the patch will add new idle animations for party members in camp and improve smooches (just in time for Valentine's Day).
In a new thread on X, Larian revealed Patch 6 has «more than just romance» and will add bug fixes and some gameplay improvements which should help make party management much easier.

It's a bit of a pain having to go speak to the companion you want to dismiss, and then finding who you want to recruit in camp, so this is much appreciated.
Patch 6 will also make sure any automatically triggered dialogue will start with your character as the speaker, rather than one of your party members. This has been a particular pet peeve of mine, and has actually caused me to redo battles because of this exact problem. Thankfully this should no longer be a problem once Patch 6 is released.
The patch will be a big one — Larian said Patch 6 is 21GB and requires about 150GB of free space on PC and Steam Deck. The patch is coming «soon», and it'll be released on Mac at a later date.
Releasing on PC, PlayStation, & Xbox, Patch 6 is 21GB and requires approximately 150GB of free space for PC & SteamDeck. Short on space? Uninstall BG3 and re-download the patched version!
Mac players, keep an eye out here for when Patch 6 will be available for you!
See you soon…
