As gaming enthusiasts, we always look forward to new installments from our favorite developers. Larian Studios has firmly established its reputation in the gaming community with the phenomenal success of Baldur’s Gate 3. Their mastery of CRPGs has captivated players ever since the launch of Divinity: Original Sin 2. However, not many are aware that Larian didn’t start in this genre. Their journey began with various titles in the Divinity franchise, originally debuting as an isometric hack-and-slash game before evolving into a third-person open-world RPG and finally settling into the CRPG format with Original Sin.
Now, after over a decade, Larian has exciting news as they unveil a brand-new trailer for a fresh entry in the Divinity franchise at The Game Awards. Although they’ve released several titles in this series, this will be the first game simply titled “Divinity.” Curious about what this means for fans? Let’s dive into everything we know so far, including potential release dates and gameplay highlights.
Divinity Release Date and Platforms
As of now, Larian Studios has not revealed a specific release date or window for Divinity, suggesting that the game may still be in early development. Based on historical trends, it’s likely that Divinity will first be available in early access, allowing the community to provide feedback over time. Our best guess? Early 2027 could see it enter early access.
Regarding platforms, we anticipate that Divinity will be accessible on PC and all major consoles, though the Nintendo Switch 2 might be an exception. This expectation is based on previous titles and trends, not confirmed details.
Everything We Know About Divinity
Larian is describing Divinity as their most ambitious project yet. This new RPG promises a scope greater than anything fans have seen before. While previous experience with Larian titles isn’t necessary, it does share the universe with the Divinity: Original Sin series.
The TGA trailer teases a dystopian world. On one side, people are celebrating while, on the other, dark punishments unfold. This visual contrast is a classic hallmark of Larian, leaving a lasting impression on players. Additionally, the appearance of the Game Awards Desert statue was another hint towards the upcoming game, something we anticipated in our predictions for The Game Awards 2025.
Currently, we know limited details about the gameplay of Divinity, except for its confirmation as an RPG. Given Larian’s recent excellence in the CRPG genre, it’s hard to see them steering away from that path. That said, there’s a possibility they might revisit the third-person open-world action-adventure style from Divinity II. If they do, the return of Dragon transformation would surely elevate the experience for veteran players.
Regardless of the specific genre—be it action RPG or CRPG—one thing is certain: quality will be paramount. With Larian’s reputation for innovative gameplay, they might very well incorporate action, turn-based, and real-time tactical combat modes into a single title.
