The Baldur's Gate 3 Creators Unveil a Fresh Divinity, Labeling it Their Biggest RPG Ever

The buzz about the recent awards show has been intense, especially after host Geoff Keighley shared a mysterious image of a desert monolith. The mystery has now been solved. The acclaimed developer is developing a completely new Divinity game.

Revealed to be Divinity, the game was debuted with a bold trailer that included intense imagery, from a burning man to scenes of revelry and the literal descent into chaos.

Not the Expected Sequel

Anyone hoping for Divinity Original Sin 3, prepare for a surprise. Larian clarified that a direct sequel to its beloved RPGs is not being worked on now.

However, the developer referred to this new Divinity as a next chapter of the main series. This distinction suggests that the team might be crafting a real-time experience instead of another tactical title. Currently, we can only guess, as only a teaser video is available.

A Pillar of Modern RPGs

The Divinity series is highly rated and arguably it pioneered the contemporary revival of crunchy computer role-playing games. These games are known for rich lore, player agency, and complex character building—elements that later found massive success in games like Baldur's Gate 3.

While its universe is familiar fare, what truly sets Divinity apart is the immense freedom bestowed upon the player.

While numerous modern RPGs have simplified options, Divinity is full of unique possibilities only possible if you're playing as a particular class or origin with a personal story.

The series is also wonderfully flexible, enabling players to improvise in narrative and gameplay. Virtually all objectives can be approached in a variety of manners, frequently in surprising fashion.

  • You might find an answer because you recalled something a dog told you.
  • Or, you could overcome an obstacle by moving environmental hazards in a clever way.

A New Chapter Begins

It is this design philosophy that lead fans and critics to hail games like Divinity Original Sin 2 as among the greatest role-playing games ever made. Now, the RPG community can get ready for a new entry in this esteemed franchise.
