Larian Studios has revealed that the editor for Divinity: Original Sin will be available as part of the game’s Early Access beta on June 26.
To top things off it comes with a sample module called ‘Cow Simulator 2014’, described by Larian as ”perhaps the finest cow simulation ever released.”
Essentially it’s an example mod used to demonstrate how fan creators can come up with various new ways to play the game. You play as a cow. That’s about as much as the developers have said. Apart from bovine simulation, here’s what the Divinity editor allows you to do.
• Make new adventures that you can play in singleplayer or multiplayer
• You can modify the main campaign or create your own
• Manipulate terrain and edit existing models and textures
• Write your own stories and dialogs
• Create behaviors and scripts with easy-to-use scripting language
• Alter existing or add new skills, stats and spells
• 1-click export to Steam Workshop
• Add and manage your mods via Steam Workshop or inside the game
The release date for Divinity: Original Sin was recently pushed back by ten days. It’s now coming out on June 30.
