Classic role-playing games traditionally put you in the role of a hero destined to save a fantasy kingdom by slaying monsters, acquiring treasures and powerful weapons, and improving your strength by gaining experience levels. 2002's Divine Divinity was very much a traditional role-playing game in this sense, since the isometric action role-playing game presented an epic quest with a suitably epic story and even a correspondingly epic zombie named Jake. Developer Larian Studios is now putting the finishing touches on the sequel, Beyond Divinity, which promises even more epic role-playing in a strange new world. Unfortunately, the game was recently delayed slightly; fortunately, this was to include all-new English voice-over. We recently had a chance to see an updated version of the game in action.​
