Long awaited by players across PC and consoles, crossplay is finally coming to Baldur's Gate 3 with Patch 8! While a firm release date is still pending, a Patch 8 Stress Test will give select players early access in January 2025. This test allows Larian Studios to identify and fix bugs before the wider release.
When Can I Play Baldur's Gate 3 Crossplay?
The crossplay feature will debut with Patch 8, launching sometime in 2025. The January 2025 Stress Test offers a sneak peek for participants.
How to Join the Patch 8 Stress Test
To be among the first to experience crossplay, register for the Patch 8 Stress Test. This is open to PC, PlayStation, and Xbox players.
Simply complete Larian's Stress Test Registration form. You'll need a Larian account; create one or log in if you already have one. The registration process is quick and requires basic information, including your preferred platform.
Selection isn't guaranteed. Those chosen will receive an email with instructions and further details. Selected players can provide feedback through forms and Discord.
The Stress Test also assesses the patch's impact on mods, so mod users and creators are encouraged to participate. Remember, all players in your group must be in the Stress Test to utilize crossplay; otherwise, wait for the full release.
