Opportunity is not only knocking, it's about to punch down your door – Steam is discounting a whole bunch of RPGs like it always is, and Larian Studios' Divinity: Original Sin is currently available for its lowest price ever, at 90% off.

That makes the now-standard Enhanced edition of the hardcore fantasy game $3.99, or two packs of gum, and its coinciding Collector's Edition is $6.99, or three packs of gum… This is making me realize how much inflation has impacted packs of gum, but for a beloved 2015 RPG? These prices are perfect.

SteamDB confirms that $3.99, down from $39.99, is the lowest-ever recorded price for Divinity: Original Sin, though this isn't the first time that Larian has bestowed the giant discount. Since May, the publisher has been pricing Original Sin at $3.99 for at least a few days each month for Steam sales like Summer Sale 2026, and also just for fun. So if you don't purchase the Enhanced edition of the game before its current discount period ends on September 21, there's a good chance you'll have another opportunity to do so soon.

The same goes for the Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition - Collector's Edition, according to its SteamDB history. $6.99 instead of $69.99 is its lowest price in history, but Larian's been returning to it nearly once a month since December 2025. So, really, consider this your notice to never buy Original Sin at full price. That would really be a sin.

But if you haven't yet played the game that really solidified Larian as the master of gloomy fantasy realms, you should think about doing so soon. Its upcoming Divinity reboot – the first new game in the series since Divinity: Original Sin II in 2017 – is just beyond the horizon. The unconventional follow-up to Baldur's Gate 3 does not have a release date, but it does come with a guarantee from Larian technical animation director Ricardo Ayasta that, "I can guarantee that all the genitals in the game be manually crafted with love." So that's something.

It's likely that the Divinity reboot will target a 2027 release date at the very, very earliest. Last we heard from Larian CEO Swen Vincke, the game was "in that stage of development where there is a lot that is still rough or missing, but where you sense that a game is coming alive."

"Something was created out of nothing, and you now get to experience what it feels like," Vincke continued, "knowing that things are still very moldable and that from here onwards, it can only improve. It's a good moment in the life of any game. And it's one I expect many developers recognize."

But even if Divinity were a million years away, the earlier installments of the RPG might take you as long to beat, so you might want to start building your backlog soon.

Former Dragon Age lead says Baldur's Gate 3 studio Larian is taking a "risk" by making Divinity right after its 2023 RPG hit, but he applauds the devs for it.

World of Warcraft: Forever is here in beta form, and the true WoW experience is intact, right down to the infinite queues and disconnects as players start banging on the door to get in. Even the devs seem a bit taken aback by the number of players lining up to participate, but they promise eager fans that everybody will be in soon.

"Thank you to everyone waiting to get into the WoW: Forever Beta," the official Warcraft account begins. "We're working through some final issues, and we expect the doors to open soon. Thank you for your patience!"

"Yeah, ok that’s a bit excessive for a beta," senior game producer Tom Ellis adds in a separate post. "Calm down now… give us a minute, this environment is taking a beating and we’re scaling various services up."

"Wow, the number of people hammering at the door of the Beta is... insane," associate production director Clayton Stone says in another tweet. "Thanks for showing up, everyone! We're scaling up and up and up (and up). You will all be in soon."

You can probably guess at the state of WoW discussion forums right now, and the WoW subreddit is predictably filled with memes about the queue times, early reactions from those lucky enough to get in, and big ol' threads for people to commiserate while they wait. And yes, everyone has already made the joke about it taking "forever" to get in.

World of Warcraft: Forever's controversial Skyborne race came from Blizzard veteran Chris Metzen himself - "We knew we wanted to add some sort of elves."

Diablo 4's current Season of Hell's Legacy is focused on celebrating the 30th anniversary of the series, which debuted all the way back in 1997. As part of that effort, Blizzard has been reaching back into the past to bring back iconic characters and enemies like Deckard Cain, Baal, Mephisto, and of course the Big D himself.

The recent discovery of Rune word recipes from Diablo 2 had players wondering if maybe Blizzard has any other blasts from the past stashed away in the new season, and as discovered by redditor JT99-FirstBallot, the answer is a very big yes.

Tristram, of course, is the village that serves as the home base of the original Diablo, where players go to buy and sell items, and interact with a range of sadly doomed NPCs like Griswold, Ogden, Pepin, and Wirt. But it's more than just that: As the hub of what is arguably gaming's most influential action RPG, Tristram is a seminal piece of digital landscape, burned into the memories of old-time Diablo fans—and its destruction sometime prior to the events of Diablo 2 (sorry, mild spoiler there) was a genuine bummer.

What's particularly impressive here is how faithful this recreation of Tristram is. The visuals are obviously dramatically improved (although it looks just as I remember it—isn't the human mind a wonderful thing?) but the layout is spot on, and all the characters are there, doing what they do. What really lands for me, though, is the audio: I'm not a Diablo fan by any stretch these days (I haven't touched the series since Diablo 2) but that Tristram guitar riff hits like a truck, and Griswold's voice, well—that's Griswold's voice!

But the attention to detail runs even deeper. As YouTuber MacroBioBoi explains, this Tristram can be turned into Uber Tristram, a special zone previously only accessible during the Pandemonium Event from the Diablo 2 expansion Lord of Destruction. Uber Tristram is basically a copy of the destroyed village seen in the first act of Diablo 2, with one big expansion: You have to fight Baal, Mephisto, and Diablo at the same time. The payoff for kicking all that Prime Evil ass is the Hellfire Torch, an extremely powerful charm—and yes, the Hellfire Torch reward is waiting for you in Diablo 4 now, too.

Blizzard is clearly going hard to recapture the magic of Diablo's glory days for the 30th anniversary, and going deep too. Which naturally leads to the question: What else is in there? It certainly seems like there's more up the sleeve: The Uber Tristram bosses also drop a new item that players are still trying to figure out what to do with.

Now that Diablo 5 is coming—though not until 2029—there are no more expansions planned for Diablo 4, and seasons will be the focus. Blizzard says we can expect more storytelling though. Namely, it needs to bring about the apocalyptic return of Diablo to set up the events of the sequel, which will take place after Sanctuary has fallen to the forces of evil.
