The Baldur's Gate 3 Creators Reveal a Latest Divinity, Labeling it Their Most Ambitious RPG Yet
The buzz about the recent awards show has been intense, notably after host Geoff Keighley posted an enigmatic photo of a desert monolith. The question has been revealed. Larian Studios is creating a brand-new Divinity game.
Revealed to be Divinity, the game was presented with a audacious trailer that included intense imagery, from a burning man to scenes of revelry and the literal unleashing of hell.
A Different Direction
Anyone hoping for Divinity Original Sin 3, that is not happening. Larian warned that a direct sequel to its venerated RPGs is not on the cards right now.
That said, the developer referred to this new Divinity as a continuation of the core franchise. This distinction suggests that the team might be designing a more action-oriented experience instead of another tactical title. Currently, we can only guess, as only a cinematic trailer is available.
A Pillar of Modern RPGs

The series is also wonderfully open-ended, letting players to improvise both in story and combat. Nearly every quest can be solved in a variety of manners, often in lateral fashion.
