Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition May Have Leaked

As a die-hard fan who’s spent countless hours immersed in the intricate worlds of Larian Studios, this news about the potential Definitive Edition of Divinity: Original Sin 2 has me absolutely thrilled! Seven years have passed since its initial release, and I can hardly wait to revisit Rivellon with next-gen graphics and improved gameplay.


Following the phenomenal achievement of Baldur’s Gate 3, it appears Larian Studios is gearing up to lead players back to Rivellon for an enhanced adventure. The Divinity: Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition initially debuted in 2017 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. If a recent Pan-European Game Information rating is correct, fans may soon experience a native next-gen edition, seven years after its initial release.

While getting an audience rating before release is standard fare, Larian has yet to announce any Divinity-related projects, so the cat seems to have scrambled its way out of the bag this time around. PEGI is the European equivalent to America’s ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) and is responsible for attaching audience ratings to upcoming games. This alleged enhanced version of the game was given an 18+ tag, with one scene, in particular, getting flagged for featuring crucifixion. Anyone who has played it knows that’s only one drop in the pool for a game full of grim content.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition May Have Leaked

As a gaming enthusiast, I must confess, it caught me off guard to hear about Larian Studios’ plans for revamping an old classic like Baldur’s Gate 3, especially after their commitment to creating something fresh post-launch. But upon reflection, it makes perfect sense to refurbish a cherished game using the advanced tools that its successor offers.

If you haven’t heard, “Divinity: Original Sin 2” was Larian Studios’ last game before starting work on “BG3,” and its success played a big role in their partnership with Hasbro. Fans of Baldur’s Gate will find themselves right at home when they start playing the new game. The two games share many similarities, such as placing players in a vast, isometric adventure, where they can either design their own character or choose from various “origin” options, each offering unique experiences and dialogue. The intricate storylines, emotional NPC interactions, destructible environments, and status effects that Baldur’s Gate pioneered were all refined in “DOS2.

For longtime fans, this is just the beginning; it’s merely an enticing preview of what Larian Studios has planned for the future. Although we don’t have concrete details about their next project yet, remarks from founder Swen Vincke hint that it’s something worth getting enthusiastic about. While it’s quite a challenge to surpass the success they’ve already achieved with three critically acclaimed games in a row, given their track record, it’s not impossible!

Regrettably, it seems like the upcoming game might be several years off yet. However, since there’s ongoing post-release support for BG3, including frequent Mod Manager updates for console users, waiting shouldn’t be too challenging.

Hey there fellow gamer! As of now, I haven’t got any inside scoop about when the Definitive Edition will be released, nor do I know if those who already own the last-gen edition can expect a free or discounted upgrade. But I’m confident that we won’t have to wait much longer before we get official news on this exciting update. In the meantime, let me tell you, this unexpected announcement is a fantastic little treat for all of us eagerly waiting for more Larian magic!
