kicks off with a reminder about said stress test, which players can still sign up for. Larian is particularly keen to see how players "get on" with crossplay " so that we can make any small changes before Patch 8 is released". The studio also reminds players that, while Mac is included in crossplay support, Mac players "won't be able to take part in the stress test this time."
Next up, Larian shares an array of specific bugs Patch 8 will address alongside the bigger new features it will add.

As of Patch 8 Barcus the gnome will no longer be " by various items like cauldrons and bottles blocking him off from view when you talk to him at Last Light". In addition, Larian says "we've also reminded Minthara that 'knocked out' does not mean 'dead', so she'll more reliably appear in Moonrise towers."
