Baldur's Gate 3's accidental PS5 release of Patch 8 has the theorycrafters in a flurry—though I'm just glad D&D's blade cantrips are officially here

Baldur's Gate 3 Gale romance - Gale sacrificing himself.

In case you weren't aware, Patch 8 of Baldur's Gate 3—which is adding 12 whole new subclasses—accidentally got released on the PlayStation 5 for a bit, yesterday. It's since been pulled, and Larian recommends rolling back the patch if you did manage to install it, but that's not stopped theorycrafters from digging into the new goodies.

Typically-speaking, I'd let something like this lie—and I feel obliged to state that all of this is subject to change—but given the screenshots I'm about to cite are being posted to a subreddit of over 180,000 people, I figure the displacer beast is already out of the bag of holding on this one. Besides, as far as accidental leaks go, "getting the majority of your playerbase frothing at the mouth with build-crafting enthusiasm" isn't a terrible outcome.
