Yea it was some sort of glitch that happened. Subclass info was shown on the BG3 Reddit and some chatter regarding new spells/cantrips like Booming Blade I believe will be official.

edit: PS5 people who started a new save will be disappointed when that patch is rolled back making said save incompatible.

My guess is that was an unanticipated glitch resulting from starting the stress test.

Larian has to "stress test" if the PS5/Xbox crossplay with PC etc. is actually working and is bug free.

Bug free?

Valid point. No software is ever bug free. I guarantee even the work software you use for work tasks contains bugs. Minor ones, but it does.

I should have said "with enough bugs fixed to be usable" ... which is all any developer really aims for. But I think the standard of level of acceptable bugs is different between software for vital tasks (like managing a nuclear power plant) and software for entertainment (like games like this one).

Not those I know.

Larian has an announcement on their website that confirms that yes, a Patch 8 build was unintentionally released to PS5 "in some regions". They advise reinstalling Patch 7, because the version released to the PS5 today won't be bugfixed.
