The anticipation around the recent awards show has been intense, especially after presenter Geoff Keighley shared a mysterious photo of a desert monolith. The secret has now been solved. The acclaimed developer is working on a fresh Divinity game.

Moving Beyond Original Sin
For those expecting Divinity Original Sin 3, this is not that. Larian stated ahead of time that a third Original Sin game to its critically acclaimed RPGs is not being worked on now.

The Legacy of Divinity
