What’s changed in the Baldur’s Gate 3 Hotfix 10 Patch Notes

While there are no huge changes here, such as new features or mechanics akin to the Magic Mirror or the option to change your Tav’s name, Larian Studios has addressed some issues players were facing.

The biggest improvements have to do with two of the game’s most popular companions: Astarion and Shadowheart.

Hotfix 10 fixes an issue where Astarion’s voice lines and subtitles would fall out of sync. As for Shadowheart, the update helps ensure she keeps following the party and not, as Larian put it, “get distracted by the wonderful vistas of the Sword Coast.
