Baldur's Gate III has been available on PC since August and recently arrived on PS5, and unfortunately just like most releases in 2023, it presents some performance problems that make it difficult to play in some cases

According to users, the situation becomes extremely complicated when reaching Act 3, where performance drops completely, both on high-end PCs and also on the PS5, as Digital Foundry's technical analysis said.

The good news is that Larian Studios has confirmed on social media that the development team is working right now on optimizing the RPG on PC and PS5. Details were shared by Swen Vincke and Very AFK.

They had some setbacks but our code team is getting closer and closer to achieving the performance they originally aimed for - I think they'll manage to surprise everyone still. They're very motivated.

Now feels like a good time to say even better performance improvements are on the horizon the engineers working on this really had an impossible task, and I’m thrilled people think they nailed it

Lastly, Swen Vincke confirms that Larian Studios is also working with Photo Mode, as it is currently "on the studio roster". This option is highly requested by the community.

Act 1 is highly optimized, that's what early access was. Act 3 is the problem spot.
