Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 6 Patch Notes
Patch 6 for Baldur’s Gate 3 released on August 08, 2025. Read on to see all of the patch notes, confirming everything new to the game:
New Kissing Animations
SinceBaldur’s Gate 3 Patch 6centers around love, Patch 6 adds animproved kissing feature. Rather than a simple smooch, these romantic scenes are much more sensual, locking your lips with your character during those steamy conversations. There are new kissing animations in the game, plus variants based on characters’ height.
New Camp Animations
Patch 6 also adds a range of new animations for party members sat around your camp. When they’re idle and without a task to complete, you may find characters sharpening their weapons or just passing the time.
It’s also now easier to dismiss party members. All you’ve got to do is speak to theparty memberyou wish to replace someone with, and invite them to your party from there. BG3 players know the struggle of taking out someone within their party and then circling back to the one they want. However, with this feature, the dismissed member will now appear when talking to your desired companion.

While a little exercise is good for the body, running back and forth between party members to dismiss them can be tiring – so you’ll now be able to dismiss a recruited companion from your party while speaking to the companion you want to replace them with!pic.twitter.com/8LByU18jbE
Improvements and Fixes
See the bullet point list below for some of the key fixes in Patch 6 of Baldur’s Gate 3. For the full list, go ahead and check out theofficial blog poston the game’s website.
Other than that, Shield Bash and Rebuke of the Mighty have been improved, making Saving Throws easier to perform. These mechanics have beenbuggy for a while, ultimately not working for many players. So, now BG3 Patch 6 has rolled out, your passives should now be fully functional for those abilities.

Conversations have also been tweaked, where your avatar is the main focus and your companions have taken the back seat. Although we all love those witty remarks fromAstarion, it’s probably for the best to have the main character actually be the star of the show.
As for the file size, Larian Studios has suggested 150GB of free space. This includes PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, with Mac expected to make a release sometime soon. In addition, the team recommends uninstalling BG3 and re-downloading the patched version if you don’t have much room for your device.
