Larian Studios surprised many when they announced no plans for DLCs, expansions, or a sequel for their popular RPG, Baldur’s Gate 3. Gamers everywhere are now left wondering: what’s next for the beloved developer?
With the deafening silence from Larian, some fans speculate a return to the Divinity series. There’s a strong desire for Divinity: Original Sin 3, especially considering the success of its predecessors. However, Larian’s publishing director, Michael Douse, quickly clarified that there are no current plans for such a project. He engaged with fans on social media, saying, “There aren’t currently any plans for a new Divinity Original Sin 3 game.”
This might be disappointing for many RPG fans, but there’s still hope. Larian could choose a different direction within the Divinity universe. Over the past two decades, they’ve explored not only action RPGs but also real-time strategy games. It’s possible we could see something entirely new from them.
Interestingly, while a sequel to Divinity: Original Sin 2 isn’t in the works, a leak suggests a new Definitive Edition of the game is on the horizon. Douse nearly confirmed this leak in a humorous reply to a fan, further raising interest among loyal players.
This upcoming Definitive Edition is expected to be a native version for platforms like PS5, enhancing frame rates and visuals. With improvements in graphics and performance, this remake will likely draw in both old fans and new players alike. The current version of Divinity: Original Sin 2 sells for $49.99 on various platforms—many are curious if this new version will come with a free upgrade for existing owners.
User reactions to these announcements have been mixed, filled with excitement and a bit of frustration. Many fans took to social media to express their longing for a Desivenity sequel, while others eagerly anticipate more news regarding the Definitive Edition. Some even joked about how “leaks” have become a standard part of the gaming industry, pointing out the humorous irony of discussing a “shadow drop” after its details are already out.
The gaming community is buzzing, with rumors and speculation leading up to major events like The Game Awards 2025. Could we see a reveal there? While we wait for more updates, the curiosity surrounding Larian’s future projects continues to grow.
