Larian Studios is set on releasing the sequel to the hit RPG "Divinity: Original Sin." The studio's founder will be explaining the details of the game, even in its Early Access.

According to Gamespot, the Early Access phase of "Divinity: Original Sin 2" will introduce new features to the franchise, such as additional skill trees and a hidden Game Master mode. The full content will be released, however, with the full game, restricting players to the first act of the game.

Larian Studios founder Swen Vincke promises to add more content as the game development progresses. Even features like the "tutorial opening section that's missing right now, just before [players] arrive on the island." Vincke wants to give those "participating in the Early Access" enough content from the first act without spoiling them too much.

He also added that the studios will be testing closed betas to test the content after the first act. Some tests would also include Arena Mode and testing character systems as well.

Larian Studios actually did the same thing for the first game especially for testing out character systems, according to PC Gamer. These tests were taken out during the Early Access to what works out best. That way the developers "will figure out the best of both and meet them in the middle for an ultimately improved system." Vincke also adds that players in the Early Access can also "get a lot of benefit from this phase of experimentation."

The Early Access phase of "Divinity: Original Sin 2" costs $45 on PC and the price will stay that way even for its full version. The game features more maps for the PVP Arena mode, more difficulty options, a new playable Undead race, and even more content. Another best feature of the game is that it will also have an editor that was used to make the game.
