Divinity: Original Sin 2 arrives on Steam Early Access on Sept. 15, “ inviting players to journey through the opening portion of the campaign and prove their skills in the online PvP Arena” according to a Larian Studios press release. Check out the new trailer for Divinity: Original Sin 2 below:

The sequel to 2014’s Divinity: Original Sin , Divinity: Original Sin 2 brings back many of the first game’s successful concepts. “ It's time for a new Divinity. Choose your race and origin story and see how differently the world reacts. Gather your party and blast your opponents with different elements in deep tactical turn-based combat. Explore a vast world alone or with up to 4 players in drop-in/drop-out cooperative play,” says the trailer’s YouTube description .

Larian Studios expands further on the plot: “ In a world where the Gods are dead, you play a wielder of forbidden magic, quarantined in the prison colony of Fort Joy. The Magisters of the Divine Order want to “cure” you of your powers. But, the Order has secrets of its own. Secrets that threaten everyone. If the world remains godless, chaos will rule...

“Define your own path with an extensive roleplaying system inspired by tabletop gaming. Create a custom Origin Story for your character, or choose one of the specially-crafted Origins with unique quest-lines penned collaboratively by Larian Studios’ writers and Chris Avellone.

“The world and its inhabitants react and adapt to each player's combination of Origin Story, traits, and deeds, creating an individualized adventure with distinctive interactions and quests, sometimes even forcing players to choose between pursuing their own goals and those of the party.”

Divinity: Original Sin 2 launches on Steam Early Access for $44.99 on Sept. 15. Will you be having another go at Divinity? Feel free to talk about all things Divinity: Original Sin 2 in our comments section below.
