As you are probably aware, the anticipated Patch 8 will introduce subclasses to a dozen available character classes in Baldur’s Gate 3. So far, we have had the opportunity to get to know 8 of them, and now it's time for the last four.

A brand new video shared on Larian Studios' YouTube channel gives us information about the Rogue, the Warlocks, and the Mage.

Swashbuckler Rogue: characterized by flashy moves inspired by pirates. Rules mean nothing to a character with this subclass. During the fight, it can blind opponents by throwing sand in their eyes. Moreover, it easily disarms the enemy and maneuvers skillfully, making it difficult for opponents to attack.

Shadow Magic Sorcerer: uses dark magic, which helps, among other things, to teleport, see in total darkness, and survive attacks that are lethal to other characters. One of these subclasses' special skills is the ability to summon the Hound of Ill Omen, which, enhanced by unique abilities, delivers the final blow to the opponent.

Hexblade Warlock: the skill of this subclass is to create cursed, magical weapons. It can also mark the souls of its victims, causing them to be resurrected as necrotic beings, capable of inflicting damage for 10 consecutive turns. Creatures can also suck the essence out of fallen souls and pass it on to the sorcerer.

Bladesinging Mage: skillfully combines magic with fencing, making this subclass fast, agile, and effective in combat. During clashes, a character with this subclass dances between enemies, gaining an additional bonus to defensive reactions. While avoiding attacks, it can respond and perform lethal strikes enriched with spectacular animation.

The release date of Patch 8 is not yet known. The major update has been tested for some time now and has received fixes, including for the cross-play mode. Devs also fixed a bug that might require players in Honour Mode to restart the game from the beginning.
