Larian Studios, the developer behind the critically acclaimed Baldur’s Gate 3, is making waves once again by announcing a new Divinity title. The studio’s return to the Divinity universe has fans buzzing with excitement, especially following the success of Baldur's Gate 3. Here's what we know about the upcoming RPG and what players can expect from the next chapter in the Divinity series.
A familiar legacy reborn
The announcement was made during The Game Awards 2025, where a mysterious statue drew attention before the game’s reveal. Titled simply Divinity, the game marks a new, standalone chapter in the franchise.
While details remain sparse, the atmosphere promises to be as rich and dark as its predecessors, with Larian Studios once again bringing their expertise in narrative-driven RPGs to the forefront.
According to Larian, the game will be a spiritual successor to previous Divinity titles, continuing to explore the same deep lore and complex storytelling that fans have come to love. The studio has confirmed that this new RPG will have a "gloomy and dark atmosphere," fitting for fans who enjoyed the tone of Divinity: Original Sin 2.
The return of Larian’s RPG magic
Much like Baldur's Gate 3, which garnered widespread acclaim for its deep role-playing elements, Divinity is expected to feature an expansive world, tactical combat, and a heavy emphasis on player choice. Larian Studios is known for creating worlds where player actions have significant consequences, and this new Divinity title will likely follow suit.
The studio has yet to release a specific release date, but fans are already speculating that the game may take years to complete, especially given Larian's reputation for creating deeply immersive worlds.
High expectations After Baldur’s Gate 3
Larian’s Baldur’s Gate 3 has set a high bar for RPGs, and expectations are soaring for this new Divinity title. The success of Baldur’s Gate 3, which introduced players to a world rich with choices, combat, and narrative complexity, has left fans eager to see how Larian builds on that success in the Divinity franchise. Early reactions to the announcement suggest that Larian's next move could redefine RPGs once again.
With no specific release window, fans will have to remain patient, but the excitement for Divinity is palpable.
Larian Studios has proven time and again that they know how to craft immersive worlds and captivating stories. If the early hints are anything to go by, Divinity is set to be another epic adventure.
