“Following the game’s incredible success in 2017 as Metacritic’s highest scoring PC game, Bandai Namco Entertainment in partnership with Larian Studios, will bring Divinity: Original Sin II to console players taking them on an adventure that will enable players to go anywhere and do anything in one of the deepest RPG worlds ever created.
Divinity: Original Sin II gives players the freedom of a sandbox RPG encouraging improvisation and experimentation with rules made to be bent rather than followed.

The game features six unique origin characters with full-fledged backstories, personalities and questlines:
Console players diving into the world of Divinity: Original Sin II for the first time will enjoy a user interface tailored for console play in both four-player online co-op and two-player split-screen co-op modes. Additional content updates and extra features will be announced leading to the game’s launch later this year.

“It was very important to us to have Divinity: Original Sin II distributed by a team that understands how to bring RPGs to a broad audience.” said Swen Vincke, Founder and CEO of Larian Studios. “With Dark Souls and The Witcher, Bandai Namco Entertainment demonstrated they know how to do exactly that and so I’m very happy we’ll have their support.”
Development of Divinity: Original Sin II began with a successful Kickstarter campaign in August 2016 raising over $2 million from more than 40,000 backers. The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Divinity: Original Sin II will be available August 2018.”
