Summary- 13 new cinematic Evil Endings added, including one for each Origin Character.
- Dynamic Split Screen revamps multiplayer gameplay, with the screen splitting and merging based on players’ distance from each other.
- Mods officially available on console – check out five of the most popular game-changers to get you started.
Alongside this, we’ve brought an updated version of our Dynamic Split Screen from Divinity: Original Sin 2 to Baldur’s Gate 3. No more shall your couch co-op sessions be littered with arguments over which direction to go in! This update means that, whenever you and your fellow party members want to go in different directions, the screen will split dynamically and remerge again when you’re back within range. But the real meat of today’s update comes in the form of our new Mod Manager, which enables console players to embrace that special breed of mayhem usually reserved for PC players. That said, with so many mods available, we appreciate it can be a bit overwhelming. So, to get you started, here’s a rundown of five of our favorites that really show off the depth of the new toolkit: 1) Paladins Have Gods by Baladeur 
The deities overseeing the lands of The Forgotten Realms are a fickle bunch, frequently putting the “god” in “god-awful”. So why not give your stalwart Paladin a few extra curveballs to deal with by pledging their allegiance to one of these reprobates? We promise it’ll add depth, flavor and new dialogue options – and we’d never break an oath to you! 2) Path of Nightmares – Dark Urge Dice by elliegreenart 
There are a plethora of mods on offer that add visual customization options to your Baldur’s Gate 3 adventures. We’ve got mods for hair, mods for faces, and even dye packs and clothes packs. But when faced with so much choice, remember to spare a thought for the humble icosahedron – or D20 to me and you. Why not pair your latest run exploring Patch 7’s new Evil Endings with these beauties from elliegreenart? Go on – they’ll put the “die” back in your dice. 3) Adjustable Party Limit by PixellBytes 
To paraphrase the great Lesley Gore: A big party? You can try if you want to! Yes, one of the most-demanded requests we’ve seen has finally been realized thanks to the noble work of Pixellbytes, who’s added functionality allowing you to wander The Sword Coast with a party of up to 16 adventurers. Couple of fun facts: that’s exactly 1.7 times the size of a certain famous fellowship of nine, and the mod even works in multiplayer. Okay, maybe only one of those is actually fun. 4) The Celestial Warlock Subclass by tepkunset 
Despite the existing offering of 12 classes and 46 subclasses in Baldur’s Gate 3, we’re firm believers in a change being as good as a rest. Consider then, this alternate subclass for the Warlock from tepkunset. Inverting the original premise of a Warlock as being bound to a demon, the Celestial Warlock draws power from a resident of the Upper Planes, offering a very different gameplay and roleplaying experience. A star is born, indeed. 5) UnlockLevelCurve – Level 13-20 by Dustbag 
They say absolute power corrupts absolutely, so what better way to celebrate our new Evil Endings than by turning it up to 11, adding more fingers to the monkey’s paw and blowing more than just the bloody doors off? This mod from Dustbag lets you develop your characters beyond level 12 by adding levels 13-20 for all classes, enabling you to be the true terror you were always meant to be. Go get ‘em, tiger.
