Some final notes include a distinct lack of graphics options, meaning that if you're playing on elderly hardware or want to try and push performance, there's not really a way to do that.

I didn't notice any other control issues like this (particularly while actually playing), but it could be a sign that the keyboard support isn't all it's cracked up to be. Although Larian boasts about having full touch, mouse and keyboard, and controller support for Divinity - Original Sin 2, I had to disconnect my keyboard to be able to type in a profile name. This means that if you have a smaller storage limit on your device, you might need to consider offloading or deleting some old games to make room.Īnother small thing that I noticed from my first hour or so with the game included a hiccup while trying to make a player profile using a Bluetooth keyboard. After completing it, you're prompted for an almost 8 GB download and the full game is promised to take up 18 GB in total.

You only need about 2 GB of space on your device to download Divinity - Original Sin 2 from the App Store, but this initial portion only contains the prologue. I noticed a few frame drops here and there, and the only real interruption to play was auto and quick saving, which darkens the screen and pauses the action for a moment or two before allowing you to resume play. I wouldn't say performance is perfect, but it is mostly stable. I happen to own an iPad Pro 11 (2018), so the video above is footage of the oldest hardware capable of running the game. It can only run on iPads with the A12 chip, meaning only the following devices can play it:

In fact, it has the highest device requirements of nearly any game on the App Store I've ever seen. Ultimately, Divinity - Original Sin 2 is everything Larian says it is on iOS, though there are some things that stuck out to me that are worth noting if you're curious about purchasing the game.įor starters, Divinity - Original Sin 2 is a resource-intensive game. After hearing the news, I sat down as soon as I was able to play through the game's prologue, record the entire session, and take down some first impressions. We all knew Larian Studios was working to bring an 'uncomprimised' port of Divinity - Original Sin 2 to iOS, but I'm not sure anyone was prepared for it to surprise release yesterday.
