I didn't say there would or wouldn't be a console version, just that only Windows has been confirmed. On PC D:OS 2 will be available digitally, through Steam or GOG.
From the D:OS Kickstarter FAQ:
For which platforms will Divinity: Original Sin 2 be available?

Right now, we're focusing on Windows only. Additional platforms may be announced in the future.

Believe us, it's not that we're not interested in producing a version for Mac/Linux/Console, it's just that we want to get the gameplay and world fleshed out in all the detail that it needs first. Once we have the game fully worked out, we'll start looking at porting it to other platforms. That’s not something that’ll happen during the Kickstarter or indeed this year.

But - and it’s an important but - we do have most things in place to support several other platforms, since we are starting work from the Divinity: Original Sin- Enhanced Edition engine. We just don’t want to make any promises yet.


Do you plan to release a physical copy of Divinity: Original Sin 2?

No, all versions of the game available in Kickstarter will be digital, and the finished version should be the same. We're trying to avoid physical DVDs, as it makes patching the game an awful lot harder. Not shipping a physical disc means that we can update the game easily, which means more developer time spent on features, allowing us to make a better game.


Currently the patch requires some executive discussion on what to include, apart from the obvious. It isn't a high priority at the moment, but it's still in flight.
