Larian also teased its next Divinity game at The Game Awards with a striking CGI announcement trailer. The studio says the new title will feature a completely new story while maintaining some continuity and returning characters. There is no release date yet, but Larian calls it the biggest game the studio has ever made. The reveal was tied to Geoff Keighley’s mysterious monolith tease during the show.
