Larian Studios appears to be readying a native PS5 port of Divinity: Original Sin 2, the critically acclaimed RPG it made prior to Baldur's Gate 3. The game has always been playable on Sony's current-gen console via backwards compatibility, but bringing it natively to PS5 could open it up to graphical improvements as well as DualSense controller utilisation. It's received a PEGI age rating for a PS5 version, all but confirming the port is in the works.
The game was originally ported to PS4 in 2018 as an Enhanced Edition for consoles, at which point we awarded a 9/10 rating in our review. «With stellar writing, challenging combat, a compelling central quest, and dozens of worthwhile side activities, Divinity: Original Sin II is one of the finest role-playing games available on PlayStation 4,» we said. «There’s the occasional small issue and some scant technical hiccups – particularly when playing online – but these are minor quibbles. This is a dense, engrossing adventure, packed to the hilt with stories worth hearing, conflicts you’ll want to resolve, and secret treasures just begging to be discovered.»

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he's found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.
Divinity Original Sin II was my first CRPG 3 years ago and I absolutely loved it. I'll happily get it again on PS5!
Another REMASTER!!! IT'S ONLY 7 YEARS OLD (6 years for console)!!!!

I played the arse out of D:OS1, but couldn't get into 2
