Larian’s next RPG is Divinity: what the studio has confirmed

Larian's next RPG has an official name: Divinity. The studio's project site identifies the team behind Baldur's Gate 3 and places the announcement in the world of Rivellon. The older wording on this page, which called it an unnamed project, is no longer useful. A reveal establishes the game's identity; it does not establish every feature players hope to see.

A new story, not an Original Sin 2 upgrade

Larian's own FAQ says the new Divinity offers a new story, with some continuity and characters for returning players. That makes the distinction between the projects important. The existing Divinity: Original Sin 2 releases are separate products, and their platform availability should not be copied into a specification for the new game.

Where to check the next announcement

Follow the project website and Larian Gazette for direct updates. Before treating a date, preorder or test invitation as confirmed, check that it names the new Divinity rather than an older title. Decide whether to replay an earlier RPG for its own story and systems, rather than assuming it is a required purchase for an unreleased sequel.
