Larian Adds 20 Baldur's Gate 3 Console Downloads With New Subclasses
Larian added 20 new downloads to baldur's gate 3 for console players on May 6. The drop includes three new subclasses and one brand-new race, extending a console catalog that had a slow start earlier in the year.
May 6 Console Drop
The May 6 batch is the fifth content drop since April 3, and it arrives after Larian vetted and approved over 30 pieces of new content in the last ten days of April. For console players, that means the update was not a one-off patch but part of a steady run of additions that has kept the version moving through early May.
Sam Woods, TheGamer’s Senior Reporter, wrote about the new content. His framing matches the numbers: Larian started May the way it finished April, with another round of mod additions instead of a pause between releases.
PC Gap Near 18,000
The console rollout still sits far behind the PC side, where the number of mods was almost 18,000 at the time of the article. That gap leaves console players with a smaller but growing set of options, and the latest 20-download batch pushes the platform farther from the early-year slowdown that had limited how quickly new content reached it.
April’s approved content included a new race, a cat version of Shadowheart, a werewolf version of Shadowheart, new classes, and new subclasses. By May 6, the update pattern had shifted from a thin stream of console additions to a more regular run, which is the practical change players can actually use: more builds, more character choices, and a deeper console mod library than they had a month earlier.
