Baldur's Gate 3 is still suffering from its deleted save bug, but Larian has shared a workaround

Even though it's been a few weeks since Baldur's Gate 3 launched on Xbox Series X|S, some players are still facing an issue where saved data is being deleted once they sign out. The issue is being investigated by Microsoft but has yet to be resolved. Fortunately, Larian Studios has offered a workaround for anyone desperate to get stuck in which utilizes the studios' cross-save system. 

As posted to Twitter/X, Larian Studios shared a step-by-step way to access their cross-save system and not lose too much progress in your future playthroughs. To do so, you will need to create a Larian account and visit the options menu under the main menu. From here, you'll need to navigate to the gameplay menu and activate cross-saves before linking your Xbox and Larian accounts. The full step-by-step as posted by Larian Studios can be seen below:

Once this is done, your last five saves will automatically be uploaded to the Larian servers. So, if you do face the deleted save data bug, you'll be able to reload one of your previous saves and not lose your entire progress. 

With that said, Larian has expressed that all players should wait for the notification stating that "Syncing cloud save" is no longer visible to ensure all saves have been uploaded - otherwise, you might find yourself back to square one. 

Should the firmware issue occur, you'll need to re-activate cross-save functionality in the options screen of your game, which will give you access to any previous saves you have uploaded to the servers. 

Larian has also announced that it plans to increase the amount of save data files each player can have via this system should this temporary workaround to last a little longer than anticipated. For updates on the situation, it's best to keep an eye on the official Larian Studios Twitter page.

We've got a list of all the best RPGs if you're looking for an alternative game to get stuck in while waiting for this issue to be fixed. Our guide to the best single-player games is worth checking out for solo adventurers.

The latest Apple TV 4K test lets you watch four sports streams at once

Apple is trying something new with the latest beta version of tvOS 16.5: the option to watch up to four simultaneous streams at once. Right now it's limited to live sports streamed through the Apple TV app on the Apple TV 4K , specifically MLB Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass. A multi-view option was spotted in the tvOS software last month, but the code was hidden and not enabled. MacRumors reported that the feature would be enabled this weekend, and beta testers have since been able to use it. As yet multi-view hasn't been officially announced by Apple, but it's expected that tvOS 16.5 is going to be pushed out in its final form within the next month or so. WWDC 2023 is around the corner as well, when we should be hearing about the next major updates for Apple's various operating systems – including tvOS 17. How it works Over at 9to5Mac there's a hands-on demonstrating how the multi-view feature works, and it's pretty much as you would expe...

Quantum computers are fast becoming cheaper and smaller — and they could be coming to a data center near you very soon

IonQ claims we’re closer to widespread enterprise quantum computing deployment as it lifted the lid on two rack-mounted models that can be deployed on-premises.   The startup has built the fourth-generation #AQ35 IonQ Forte Enterprise and fifth-generation #AQ64 IonQ Tempo, both of which are designed to be deployed in enterprise and government data centers. It’s also said it is deploying two quantum computers to the US Air Force.  While revealing these two models, IonQ co-founder and CTO Jungsang Kim said quantum computers are already in use by enterprises to churn through machine learning workloads. This, he added, suggests we’re much closer to readily available and affordable machines. Priming enterprises for a quantum future “We believe in the enterprise-grade quantum computing, which is where it can be something of value for enterprises, can happen in the next few years as we build powerful enough quantum computers that can actually do things that classical computers w...

Nvidia RTX 4080 GPU could get cheaper with a new version – but don’t get your hopes up

Nvidia’s RTX 4080 is purportedly getting a new spin on the GPU which could reduce the cost, but any price reduction will likely be very minor, sadly, if it happens at all. Tom’s Hardware flagged up this rumor – and treat it with caution, as with anything from the ever-spinning mill – that originated from HKEPC (a tech site in Hong Kong), claiming that while the current RTX 4080 graphics card is built on the AD103-300 chip, Nvidia is going to use a slightly different GPU in the future, namely AD103-301. There’s now more evidence this is actually happening, Tom’s points out, courtesy of a graphics card maker, Galax, which under its RTX 4080 product details lists the GPU as ‘AD103-300/301’. Furthermore, VideoCardz , which also picked up on this, informs us that Gainward, another card maker, has also listed the updated GPU variant AD103-301 in its product specs. With two separate third-party graphics card makers mentioning this new spin on the GPU in their specs, it seems pret...
