Larian doesn't know "what's going on," but Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 has come early for PS5 players: "How's your Monday going?"

Ahead of the now long-awaited Patch 8 with its cross-play, new subclasses, photo mode, and more, a lucky few Baldur's Gate 3 fans seem to have access to the big update ahead of time - and Larian Studios has no idea why.

The stress test for Patch 8 isn't officially here just yet, but it sounds like PlayStation 5 players might already have their hands on the exciting update. Speaking in a new post online, Larian Studios confirms as much: "No, the Patch 8 stress test hasn't yet begun. Yes, PS5 players do currently have access to Patch 8." The console users' access to the patch wasn't intentional on the developers' part, however, with Larian admitting they aren't sure what's going on.
