"During a Reddit AMA, Larian technical director Bert van Semmertier gave the thumbs-up to co-op in Divinity, stating that the feature "will be available for release." "The amount of players playing together will be depending on the final party size," van Semmertier responded. "But since modding is planned for this project as well, player[s] will be essentially free to extend this. There is no hard limit to the amount of co-op players.""
"Co-op wasn't the only topic broached by Larian on Reddit. CEO Swen Vincke waded right in regarding the lightning-rod issue of generative AI, stating that Divinity wouldn't feature "any GenAI art." Larian might still use forms of AI during development, but that will be trained on previous work by the team, according to Vincke. This comes after backlash to comments Vincke made last month about generative AI at Larian."
"Divinity was unveiled at The Game Awards last month, after a mysterious monolith teased the game beforehand. This is the next big game from the Baldur's Gate 3 creators, and Vincke admits there's "more pressure" now. That said, Vincke still believes Divinity will be better than Baldur's Gate 3 "on all fronts." There is no release window for Divinity, but it probably will be an early-access game like Baldur's Gate 3."
Divinity will include co-op at release, with the final number of concurrent players tied to the game's party size. Planned mod support will allow players to extend party limits, and developers state there is no hard cap on co-op players. Larian's CEO confirmed the game will not include any generative AI art, though internal AI trained on the team's prior work may be used during development. Divinity was revealed at The Game Awards and carries heightened expectations; the studio expects pressure but aims to surpass Baldur's Gate 3 on all fronts. No release window exists; an early-access launch is likely.
