Baldur’s Gate 3 was revealed earlier this year as the long-awaited followup to the Dungeons & Dragons RPG series. While the first two games were developed by BioWare, D&D owner Wizards of the Coast partnered up with Larian Studios to develop the third. Work on Baldur’s Gate 3 has been slowed down by the COVID-19 pandemic (opens in new tab), but Larian says it still plans to release a version of the game into early access sometime this year.

As for Divinity, the most recent major development in the series was the tactics-driven Divinity: Fallen Heroes. However, that was put on indefinite hold in October 2019 (opens in new tab), just a month before its planned release date. Larian said at the time that it would need more time and resources than were currently available to bring its vision of the game to life, so perhaps we’ll hear more about future plans for Fallen Heroes during this stream.

Douse confirmed in another tweet (opens in new tab) that it doesn’t have a new Divinity game “on the cards right now,” though it is “playing around” with Divinity: Original Sin 2 and its characters.

While we wait to hear more, take another extensive look at Baldur’s Gate 3 gameplay (opens in new tab).
