Larian Studios continues to deliver new updates for Baldur's Gate 3. The upcoming Patch #5 addresses more bugs and technical improvements, including Astarion's little kisses. And there may be more new features as well.

Baldur's Gate 3, the hit CRPG based on Dungeons & Dragons, scored massive critical and financial successes for Larian Studios. And despite the many glitches and tech issues since its launch, BG 3 continues to be a gold standard in the eyes of the video game industry and players. One key factor to this perception is the commitment Larian Studios displays to providing hotfixes and patches on a regular basis.

And it looks like the developer is prepping for another big update. Larian Studios recently posted on their social media, teasing what changes Patch #5 will include.

According to the details shared by the developer, one of the biggest changes included in Patch #5 is fixing Astarion's little kisses. Astarion is one of the Origins characters and the one that has no qualms about amorous acts toward the player character's romantic companion. Thus, Baldur's Gate 3 fans have been asking for a fix to his little kisses (which sometimes look awkward).

Of course Astarion's kisses are important to the story. His gratuitous sex scene with a bear is one of the selling points during the Baldur's Gate 3 promotion.
