Following weeks of speculation centered around a mysterious statue discovered in the desert, Larian Studios finally clarified at The Game Awards what that was all about. As suspected, the teaser campaign was a prelude to the official reveal of Divinity, the studio's first major project following Baldur's Gate 3. While the reveal was limited to a cinematic trailer, it confirms that the developer is returning to its proprietary IP.
To capitalise on the renewed interest in the Divinity franchise, the studio announced Divinity: Original Sin II – Definitive Edition for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. This brings the critically acclaimed RPG to modern hardware with official support, rather than relying on backward compatibility.
These new versions offer a modest suite of enhancements over their last-gen counterparts, though the core experience remains essentially unchanged. For existing fans, Larian has confirmed that this is a free upgrade. Owners of the game on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, or the original Nintendo Switch can access the native current-gen version at no additional cost.
For those who haven't yet played the title often cited as one of the genre's best, the timing couldn't be better. The game has been discounted across digital storefronts for the pre-Christmas sales period, making it more accessible for players looking to understand the studio's roots before the next chapter begins.
KitGuru says: Have you already played Divinity: Original Sin 2? Are you planning to buy its Definitive Edition for one of the new platforms that just received it?
