If you have been playing Baldur’s Gate III in the last few hours and now you find that It does not allow you to load your last saved gamesDon’t worry, this is due to a bug in the game itself that Larian Studios has confirmed will be fixed very soon. Is about a mishap with Hotfix 4a patch that hit the game yesterday but was quickly pulled because it contained unexpected bugs.
In this way, the games saved while that version of the game was active have been precautionary disabledbut they will be active once the new version of Hotfix 4 arrives. The Belgian team has confirmed that the arrival of this update is expected very soon, although we will have to wait.
Problems with Baldur’s Gate III save games
As we can read through the official account of Larian Studios through Twitter, the impossibility of loading some Baldur’s Gate III games in the last hours is due to the fact that it has been removed last game updatebut that doesn’t mean you have lost that progresssince they will be available again once the patch is corrected and they are re-enabled for all players.
Due to a build error causing new crashes, we’ve rolled back Hotfix 4 for the time being. We’ll re-release it as soon as we’ve fixed the cause.
If you’ve saved since updating, you won’t be able to load those saves until we’ve re-published Hotfix 4. Sorry about the inconvenience.

To the question of When will that new version of Hotfix 4 arrive? to fix the save issues, Larian Studios has confirmed that they would have the fix ready, but it won’t be available until tonight on European servers, so you still have to wait a few hours to access those games. although you can always continue from another save slot that would have been created in Hotfix 3, if you have one and its progress is not far from the latest one.
We have a candidate for a build, which is going through rigorous internal testing before it’s released. If all goes well, we aim to release Hotfix 4 by the end of the day, EU. We’ll let you know if and when anything changes.

This shows that despite being the highest rated game, any change in games as big as Baldur’s Gate III is likely to cause some unexpected errors. Luckily, the solution will not be long in coming. In view of the first major update of the game, which will arrive in the coming days, several new features that are in high demand by the Baldur’s Gate III community are expected.
