Larian Studios is excited to announce that the team behind the Metacritic Must-Play RPG Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition is working with Apple and Elverils on an Apple iPad port of the game. The project was revealed as a key title driving demos in this year’s WWDC event.
In a video for developers about Xcode12 and Metal Apps released during WWDC 2020, Apple showcased the new iPad version of the BAFTA award-winning adventure from Larian Studios. The team is working on adding all-new touch screen controls and UIs as well as adding controller support. Though the port is a long way from release, Larian is excited to iterate together with some of the top minds in Apple and iPad development. Elverils helmed the already released MacOS version of Divinity: Original Sin 2.
Originally released to critical acclaim on PC, Divinity: Original Sin 2 received a 93 Metacritic rating, and is currently one of only a handful of games to receive a 10/10 from Gamespot. It was released for the Nintendo Switch last year, featuring cross save progression with Steam.
What’s shown in the WWDC video in terms of features on the menu are not 100% final, and the full list of features will be announced at a later date.
