Baldur's Gate 3 is just built different, and the genre-defining fantasy game has done just that. According to SteamDB, the game hit 111,544 concurrent Steam players on Sunday, January 18, and Larian CEO Swen Vincke says that both it and Divinity Original Sin 2 have seen a spike in sales since the announcement of Divinity at The Game Awards.

• Divinity: Original Sin 2's brilliant armor system is one of a kind in RPGs, and I'm bummed we'll apparently never see it again - 11 January 2026

Anyway, the folks behind Baldur's Gate 3 have revealed a new RPG called... Divinity. No, not Divinity: Original Sin 3. Just plain old Divinity, for the moment at least. Catch the trailer below. Beware that it contains footage of some drunk Orcs and one naked human guy in a crown getting roasted alive. Read more

  Look, modders are like sand. Let me explain. I mean that as a compliment - they get everywhere, and often do it faster than you'd ever think. Take, for example, the modder who's already managed to unearth and unlock a developer mode in Baldur's Gate 3 's brand new official modding tools , which could soon make custom levels a reality. Yep, if you're counting, Patch 7 only came out last Thursday, bringing with it that long-awaited official mod support after a few months of beta testing, and we're already chatting about people going 'Sod the official stuff you're making it a lot easier for me to do Larian, I'm gonna try something properly difficult'. The mod that unlocks the chance for folks to have a go at this complex stuff is 'BG3 Toolkit Unlocked' from modder Siegfre, who's previously had a go letting you have a LAN party in Skyrim by playing with your mates.

• Act fast to grab Divinity Original Sin 2 at its lowest price ever - 7 September 2024

  Long before the days of Baldur's Gate 3, Divinity: Original Sin 2 reigned supreme. Larian Studios' previous most famous game helped them gather a massive audience when it launched in 2017, as it made its mark as one of the most outstanding game studios still standing.

• Amid Twitter economics lesson, Larian dev says Baldur's Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin 2 were priced "below their value", due to "faith" in recouping costs - 30 August 2024

  Everyone stay calm, this is a story about the economic realities of video games and how that affects companies and consumers. Baldur's Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin 2 are both video games, and Larian’s publishing director says they were priced "below their value", because the studio had “faith” it’d get back what it put in and cared about the costs us regular joes already face.

• The Divinity: Original Sin board game is wonderfully familiar - 10 June 2024

  The reason I'm writing about a board game for a PC gaming site, and the reason I quickly feel comfortable playing it, are one and the same: it's a lot like Divinity: Original Sin 2. After a brief jaunt from PCGN house, myself and Carrie sit down at a table in a hotel basement, along with a few other pleasant folk from the local game press and Kieron Kelly, producer at Larian Studios. A character board lies before us full of familiar icons in an unfamiliar context - I am a Rogue, and recognise that I am skilled in being a Scoundrel - and I have a deck of cards to represent my abilities. While the board game's mechanics are new, knowing what something does in the videogame makes the process of learning more like being gently lowered into them, rather than tossed into the deep end.

  fter six years of development, Larian Studios has released Divinity: Original Sin The Board Game —a distillation of its unique approach to fantasy RPGs into a box full of cardboard and plastic. You can read my impressions of the game for a full rundown , but suffice to say, I think it's something really special. So I was grateful to get the opportunity at the launch event to talk to Kieron Kelly, publishing coordinator at Larian and the overseer of the project, about how it all came together... Read more.

• The Divinity: Original Sin board game is like a huge new Larian RPG in a box, and it's one of the coolest games I've ever played - 26 April 2024

  Greetings, fans of Baldur's Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin 2. What if I was to tell you that Larian has launched a new massive RPG that you can play right now? Sure, it may be a bit pricier than you expect, and involve more little bits of card&#x2026.. Read more.

• A wholly subscription-driven games industry would be "savage", says Larian CEO - 17 January 2024

  Larian CEO Swen Vincke has been reading Ubisoft director of subscriptions Philippe Tremblay's thoughts from yesterday about how players need to "get comfortable" with renting their games as a package, rather than "having and owning" an individual copy. His broad takeaway is: that ain't it, chief. In a social media thread today, Vincke wrote that "it's going to be a lot harder to get good content if subscription becomes the dominant model and a select group gets to decide what goes to market and what not". He feels that "direct from developer to players is the way". As such you shouldn't expect Baldur's Gate 3 , Divinity: Original Sin 2 or any other Larian RPGs to join the Game Pass bandwagon anytime soon. Read more

• Get Larian's brilliant precursor to Baldur's Gate 3 for £9 on GOG - 20 December 2023

• Larian CEO is "frightened" by Baldur's Gate 3's success but it's "very motivating" for "our next big game" - 15 November 2023

  Larian's king wizard (CEO) Swen Vincke is very eager to tell you about the studio's next game after Baldur's Gate 3 . And also, a bit terrified, because after all, the response to Larian's D&D adaptation has been rather rhapsodic . How on Earth do you replicate that level of success? The answer may lie in scripture.

• Grab Baldur's Gate 3's predecessor for half off during this Steam sale - 6 September 2023

  Divinity Original Sin 2 is one of the greatest RPG games to ever bless my PC, and I fully believe that every Dungeons & Dragons fan should check it out. While it follows its own separate rule set unlike Baldur's Gate 3, the game is an essential experience for any Larian Studios fan. Divinity Original Sin 2 walked so that Baldur's Gate 3 could run, and nobody can change my mind about that. If you haven't yet played the spiritual predecessor, you should grab it now while it's massively discounted on Steam. Read the rest of the story...
