while half the Internet discusses whether the strange monolith of Geoff Keighley In the Mojave desert it is a portal of Devil 4 or a structure The Elder Scrolls 6, the real answer was hidden in plain sight, not in the desert, but in the legal records. If we leave aside the “noise” of social networks and apply a forensic analysis to trademarks, the evidence is irrefutable: the king of the RPG, Larian Studios, is about to claim his throne in The Game Awards with the return of divinity.
The “smoking gun” is on the logo, not on the sand
The key that solves the mystery in The Game Awards It is not the demonic aesthetic of the statue, but a specific symbol engraved on it. A door or portal with a very particular design. Crossing this design with recent intellectual property databases, we find an exact match. A new trademark features a logo virtually identical to that of the monolith.
But expert analysis goes beyond drawing. The registration was carried out by the law firm IHDE & Partner Rechtsanwalte. For the inexperienced eye, this means nothing; But for those of us who follow the industry, this is the same firm that has historically managed the intellectual properties of Larian Studios, including the Divinity: Original without. The legal connection is as strong as a confession signature. Hence, there is a strong suggestion and connection between this new title and the The Game Awards.
Why Divinity and not Baldurs Gate 4?
Many hoped that Larian would capitalize on the monumental success of Baldurs Gate 3 With a direct sequel or a DLC, but this strategic move is much more interesting. Back to divinity, its own intellectual property (IP), means that the study no longer has to share benefits or creative decisions with Wizards of the Coast. Dungeons & Dragons).
This teaser of The Game Awards Suggest that Larian is ready to apply the entire budget, technology and lessons learned in BG3 to his own universe. Let’s imagine a divinity With the values of cinematic production that won the GOTY last year. That is what this monolith represents: the total emancipation of Larian as the dominant power of the Western RPG.
What The Game Awards will really reveal to us
It is important to note that Michael Douse, director of publication of Larian, has played the mistake saying they are not working on “Divinity: Original Sin 3”. However, the trademark registration is simply “Divinity”. This could indicate a “reboot”, a massive spin-off, or a new numbered installment that abandons the “Original Without” caption. However, there is no more suitable scenario to present a similar title than in the The Game Awards.
Geoff Keighley knows that he has in his hands the most powerful revelation of the year. discarded God of War, , Devil And Bethesda’s titles by their own creators, the road is free for Larian to steal the show at The Game Awards. This Thursday, we will not only see a trailer. In addition, we will see the confirmation that the Belgian studio is now the one who sets the pace of the industry.
