For the third time in a week, Baldur’s Gate 3 has a new update.

Now, following a small update earlier this week, developer Larian Studios has released Hotfix 19. Here’s what it does.

For example, Hotfix 19 fixes some alignment issues with Minthara and Lae’zel kisses that should make them look more realistic.
There are also some Xbox-specific multiplayer fixes to address issues with controller assignments and invites not working properly.
Larian also reiterated that it is “actively working on further fixes that cover several community-submitted issues with Patch 6,” indicating we can expect more bug-fixing updates like this one soon.
