Baldur's Gate 3's latest hotfix should stop an intellect devourer cheekily messing up your quick breaks

Hello there again, Baldur's Gate 3 people. How are your lives going? Hold on, it'll have to wait, there's a newly released hotfix just arrived, and it does things, as per. This time, its stopping your gang's chill time from being prevented by a naughty walking brain.

Yep, after the last one stopped you from conning merchants out of their hard-earned cash using some sneaky box-based tricks, this one stops an NPC from pranking you. Life, you see, it moves in cycles and, as George Lucas might say, it sometimes rhymes. Ok, I'll stop it, since this is just a minor update to a video game.

The set of notes that accompanies hotfix 24 - which has gone live today - is quite snappy, so I'll keep it snappy from here on out, as I always do. The main news is this: Larian's "fixed an issue preventing you from taking a Short Rest when having added and dismissed Us with a companion party member and then loaded certain savegames."

Hotfix #24 Now Live!

Hello everyone,

We’re continuing to improve stability and performance in Baldur’s Gate 3 and have another small hotfix going live today that addresses some bugs and performance issues!

Unable to Short Rest? A bug was preventing some players from taking a Short Rest when having added and then dismissed Us with a companion party member, before then loading certain savegames. We've had some kind but firm words with this adorable intellect devourer, and power naps are now back on the schedule.

Mac players, we have now resolved an issue introduced in a previous Hotfix that was causing performance and FPS drops on the platform. Update your game with this latest hotfix, and check that you are on version 4.1.1.5009956!

As with previous updates, if you’re experiencing any issues after installing this latest hotfix, please check whether the issue persists with all mods uninstalled. If you continue to experience this issue after uninstalling mods, please contact our support team and submit a full report to help us solve your issue.

We continue to work on further fixes and patches, but in the meantime, thank you for playing Baldur’s Gate 3!

Baldur's Gate 3 runs surprisingly well on this Arm laptop

It's easy to get lost in the world of high-end hardware, but sometimes it's far more impressive to see a game on a system on which it has no business running. Such is the case with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite Arm laptop chip, which was recently demonstrated running Baldur's Gate 3 at 1080p, with a frame rate of 30fps.


While no serious PC gamers will be giving up their best graphics card and x86 gaming CPU in favor of this emulation tech right now, it's still a marvel to see in action and will certainly have an audience. Devices based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite SoC aren't set to release until later this year, but this demo is a shining example of what's possible with its x86/64 emulation system.
