Stephen Tailby (Push Square) has reviewed Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition:

Sin-ply divine

PC gamers have been roaming through Divinity: Original Sin since the middle of last year, after a successful Kickstarter campaign and some hefty delays. For these day-one players, it's been yet another long wait for the Enhanced Edition to roll out: an immense - and free - update to the initial release that fleshes out and extends an already large role-playing game. It provides controller support, fully voiced characters, split screen local co-op, a revamped story, and many, many other tweaks that take it to the next level. Now, we console users are getting our first taste of Divinity: Original Sin, with the extra features that the Enhanced Edition adds built in as standard - and what a feast it is.

Conclusion

A splendid RPG that tests your skills and your brain, Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition is a challenging, sprawling, and enchanting title from the very start. Our only quibble is a complex UI that can sometimes get a little too busy, but it doesn't take away from the game's many strengths. Not only does it have an impressive combat system and interesting quests, it features a reactive world that you can truly leave your mark on. Add in a winning sense of humour, well thought-out gameplay systems, and a charming aesthetic, and you're left with an RPG that would be a sin to miss.

Score: 9/10 - Excellent
