In a recent video released by Larian Studios, players were given an exclusive sneak peek at four of these subclasses: the Bard of the College of Enchantment, Barbarian of the Path of the Giant, Cleric of the Death Domain, and Druid of the Circle of Stars. This video is the first in a series that will explore all 12 subclasses, providing in-depth looks at the new gameplay mechanics and options they offer.

With stress-testing in full swing and additional sign-up rounds available, the community's anticipation is palpable.

As the final major patch in Baldur's Gate 3's post-launch development cycle, Patch #8 is set to conclude this chapter, leaving fans eagerly awaiting what Larian Studios has in store for the future.
