Bruce Straley

has confirmed that its upcoming role-playing game, Divinity, is indeed turn-based, following speculation from the developers' fans.

Following the announcement of Divinity at the Game Awards, fans had wondered if it would follow 2023's Baldur's Gate 3 and prior games in the Divinity series by offering turn-based combat or mark a significant shift for Larian and move to a more action-game-oriented combat.

Confirmation that it is sticking with turn-based comes from a Bloomberg interview with Larian boss Sven Vicky.

Vicky.

Vinicky.

Winky?

Once I introduced Sven's name, I just started calling him Sven, so that's it.

But you know him.

He would chain mail from the game ward.

He's a very nice man.

Next time I meet him, I'm going to say, yell your name into my ear 17 times.

Say it.

Quote, this is going to be us unleashed, I think he said.

It's a turn-based RPG featuring everything you've seen from us in the past, but it's brought to the next level.

End quote.

He took part in a round of interviews with the media following the announcement and spoke to IGN in an interview of our own on what to expect from Divinity.

The key points he made during the IGN interview include... Divinity is a single-player game with cooperative multiplayer, as with Baldur's Gate 3.

Larian has been working on Divinity for two years already, and it is now in full production.

Larian owns Divinity, so it is free from the Dungeons & Dragons shackles it built Baldur's Gate 3 with.

Divinity is bigger than Baldur's Gate 3...
