Divinity Original Sin 2

 

Last year, Larian Studios announced Divinity: Original Sin 2. Along with the announcement, the developers created a Kickstarter campaign for the game that raised over $2 million. The game was at last year’s PAX Prime (now named PAX West) and this year at PAX East, but the studio is going to let you play the game before its release date by putting it on Steam’s Early Access program on September 15.

If you get it next month, you can try and test some of the game’s new features. One of the marquee additions to the sequel is the idea of an origin story. You can choose from one of four characters (the developers will add more origin stories throughout the Early Access period), and each one has their own background story that will evolve throughout the game, in the form of origin quests. \

If you decide to play the game with friends in co-op mode, you and your fellow teammates will have different goals for your origin quests. This means that you will need to decide if you want to work together with your friends to tackle these special missions or go through the journey alone.

The game will now support up to four people, whereas the previous game allowed only two people to play together. The increase to four players should make for a more enjoyable game.

Larian Studios is bound to show off more of the game in the coming months. After the September 15 early access release, the team will have three months to finish Divinity: Original Sin 2. The game is planned to come sometime in December 2016.
