Due to some last minute issues, Larian ended up releasing the fifth patch for Baldur's Gate 3 a couple of days later than originally planned. Since they already published a fancy community update last week, I'll just post an excerpt from the changelog:

- Added new recruitment scenes with Shadowheart.

- Added new camp scene with Scratch and the owlbear cub.
