Larian Studios Just Dropped a NUCLEAR Bombshell: The Return of Divinity!

The wait is over, folks! After a series of cryptic teases and a trademark leak that basically spilled the beans, Larian Studios has finally revealed their next game at The Game Awards, and it's a DOOZY. Say hello to… Divinity!

Now, we don't have all the juicy details on the game itself, but the cinematic trailer gave us some SERIOUS clues. Imagine a medieval festival, complete with revelry and a giant wicker man ready to be torched. But here's the twist: there's a real person chained inside, being tortured as the effigy burns. And then, things get WEIRD. The victim's blood (or is it?) drips into the soil, summoning some creepy screaming plants, and the wicker man goes absolutely BERSERK.

But the real kicker is the statue at the end, which has been the subject of much speculation over the past few weeks. And the answer is… Divinity! Not a new Divinity: Original Sin game, mind you, but a return to the series' roots. For those who don't know, Larian first released Divine Divinity in 2002, followed by Beyond Divinity in 2004, Divinity 2 in 2009, and Divinity: Dragon Commander in 2013.

Divinity: A Blast from the Past

Larian's been on a HOT STREAK with their RPGs, and it's no surprise they want to revisit their own IP. I mean, who wouldn't want to return to a series that's been dormant for years? The studio's had massive success with Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Baldur's Gate 3, with the former scoring a whopping 9.6/10 and the latter getting a perfect 10/10.

For those who missed it, we said Divinity: Original Sin 2 was "designed in the spirit of decades-old RPGs like Baldur's Gate 2, but that legacy serves only as a foundation for the expansive game Larian has built on top of it." And as for Baldur's Gate 3, we called it a "landmark moment in the genre" that sets the bar for all future CRPGs.

What About Baldur’s Gate 4?

Sorry, folks, but Larian's already addressed this. They're not working on a Baldur's Gate 4, and the future of the series remains in the hands of Hasbro. So, don't hold your breath for a sequel just yet. ‍️

But hey, with Larian returning to their roots, we can expect some SERIOUS magic from the studio. And who knows, maybe this new Divinity game will be the next big thing in the world of RPGs.
