Revision 1

Divinity was revealed during The Game Awards 2025, broadcast on December 11, 2025. The announcement closed a teaser campaign built around a mysterious statue, later named the Hellstone, and confirmed that Larian Studios next project would be a brand new Divinity game.

The Announcement

The reveal took the form of a cinematic teaser trailer rather than gameplay footage. Director Swen Vincke confirmed several key details: the game is a turn-based RPG, it uses a new version of the studio's engine, and it is the most ambitious game Larian has made. Vincke summed up the studio's mindset for the project by describing it as the team unleashed.

Scope and Ambition

Both Larian and the show framed Divinity as larger in scope than Baldur's Gate 3, which is itself one of the studio's biggest releases. By January 2026 the project had grown to a team of around 500 developers spread across the studio's locations, making it the largest game Larian has ever attempted.

The Hellstone Tease

Before the show, a large statue appeared at a roadside in the Mojave Desert in California. Tracking details shared by the show's host, Geoff Keighley, sent fans to photograph it in person while the community guessed which game it teased. Speculation ranged across many long awaited titles before the reveal tied the statue to Divinity. The full story of the tease is covered on the Hellstone Statue page.

What the Reveal Did Not Show

No release date, no platforms beyond PC, no gameplay footage, and no story specifics were shared. Larian indicated that more would follow later in development.
