🔗 Share this article The Baldur's Gate 3 Creators Unveil a New Divinity, Calling it Their Largest RPG Yet The speculation surrounding The Game Awards was significant, particularly after presenter Geoff Keighley posted a puzzling photo of a desert monolith. The secret is finally answered. Larian Studios is creating a completely new Divinity game. Announced as Divinity, the game was showcased with a daring trailer packed with striking imagery, from a burning man to an orgy and the literal opening of infernal gates. Moving Beyond Original Sin For those expecting Divinity Original Sin 3, that is not happening. The studio warned that a follow-up to its venerated RPGs is not being worked on now. That said, the developer referred to this new Divinity as a continuation of the main series. This choice of words hints that the team might be building a real-time experience instead of another tactical title. For now, it remains theory, as only a teaser video is available. The Legacy of Divinity The Divinity series is widely praised and many say it sparked the modern wave of crunchy computer role-playing games. These games are celebrated for rich lore, player agency, and complex character building—qualities that subsequently reached new heights in games like Baldur's Gate 3. While its setting is classic fantasy, what makes Divinity apart is the unprecedented level of trust bestowed upon the player. While numerous modern RPGs have streamlined options, Divinity is packed with niche playthroughs you can achieve if you're playing as a specific type of character with a unique decision path. The series is also wonderfully permissive, allowing players to find creative solutions in narrative and gameplay. Nearly every quest can be approached in a variety of manners, sometimes in lateral fashion. You might find an answer because you heeded something an animal companion shared. Or, you could overcome an obstacle by using the world itself in a inventive way. The Journey Continues It is precisely these elements that have cemented the series to declare games like Divinity Original Sin 2 as among the greatest role-playing games in history. Now, players can anticipate a new entry in this groundbreaking franchise.
