Divinity: Original Sin 2 Is Getting a Free Upgrade for PS5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2

Did you catch the Divinity reveal at The Game Awards and think, “I really should play Divinity: Original Sin 2”? Good news—Larian has just made the experience even better on modern consoles with a free upgrade for PS5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2.

This update was revealed in a new trailer showcasing the improvements in the latest versions. The changes aren’t drastic—just enhanced resolution and smoother frame rates. But if you already own the game on a previous platform (PS4, Nintendo Switch, or Xbox One), the upgrade is completely free. It should help bring the eight-year-old classic up to speed with today’s console technology.

If you don’t own it yet, now’s a great time to pick it up. At the time of this writing, it’s available at a discount across several platforms. The standard Nintendo Switch edition is 50% off, dropping to $25, and you’ll automatically get the free upgrade on Switch 2. On Xbox, it’s priced at $17.49. If you already own the game on PC, no action is needed—your version is already top-tier and doesn’t require an update.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is outstanding and absolutely worth experiencing if you haven’t already. In our 2018 review of the Definitive Edition, we gave it a 9.6/10, calling it “a new way to play one of the absolute best RPGs in years. Whether you’re returning on PC or starting fresh on console, its flexibility, personality, and charm make for an unforgettable adventure.”

It might also be smart to play it before the next Divinity installment arrives, as Larian has hinted that fans of Original Sin 1 and 2 could gain deeper insight and a stronger sense of continuity in the upcoming game.
