Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 is officially set to launch on April 15, and while we already know it's going to be big, the devs at Larian Studios are really hyping up just how big it is.

"It's huge," Larian publishing director Michael "Cromwelp" Douse says while retweeting our previous coverage of Patch 8's impending launch. (Thanks, by the way.) "Details soon. The ultimate Baldur's Gate experience! I can't wait to play through again, and again."

It's unclear exactly when those "details" are going to land, but they'll likely be in the form of patch notes – and what a might set of notes it's going to be, according to Larian CEO and BG3 director Swen Vincke. "I just read the 48 pages of patch notes on this," Vincke says in a tweet. "If there were a Michelin guide to patches, I’d give this one 3 stars."
