Original Sin 2 is Happening. This will be What Baldur’s Gate II Was to BioWare
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is in the works, Larian Studios announced. Kickstarter campaign will launch on 26 August. This is when the developers are going reveal more details about the game.
Larian Studios officially announced Divinity: Original Sin II, a sequel to a warmly received last year’s RPG. Just like the first game, this one too will see a Kickstarter campaign – the reasons for that were explained in this post. As for now, the developers are economical with details, saying only that the second title will be building on the fundamental systems laid by Divinity: Original Sin, allowing them to give more attention to content and gameplay. Swen Vincke, CEO in Larian Studios said:
„Put simply, if you were to compare what we’re doing to what Bioware did back in the day with Baldur’s Gate and Baldur’s Gate 2, D:OS 2 is to be our Baldur’s Gate 2 - building further on our equivalent of Baldur’s Gate; D:OS.”
We will learn more about Divinity: Original Sin II when Kickstarter campaing starts later this month, on August 26th. Larian Studios will also be showing the game’s prototype at Pax Prime (28-31 August).
