Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Latest News iPad/Steam Cross Save Now Available! v. 3.6.117.3735

Hey everyone,

We have just released a new update for Divinity: Original Sin 2!

In this update we have added Steam Cross Save progression for iPad players! Now you'll be able to share your Steam save files between PC and iPad, seamlessly and as often as you like.

We have also added Brazilian Portuguese for all platforms, so that means you'll be able to play the game in your native language now on PC, Mac, iPad, Switch, Playstation and Xbox. We have also added Latin-American Spanish for iPad.



We've also updated the Larian Launcher for you! We've fixed issues with it displaying on certain resolutions, issues with starting the game on network mapped drives and we've added a skip option for you. See changelist below for details.

And last but not least, we’ve got a stacked line up of fixes for the iPad version of the game, including newly-added overhead health bars, portrait-based targeting, and UI optimizations.

Happy adventures,

Larian Crew

Guys, ever since this update got released it's impossible to launch the game with GeForce Now, it crashes immediately after finishing downloading it. Is this something you're aware of?

Thanks for letting us know! Have advised the team and we are investigating this issue.

Cool, thanks for a swift reply

Lots of great fixes and additions, I have Pc and iPad versions but mostly play on the iPad. Lot of these tweaks and polish look great! However, since my iPad updated last night, I’ve experienced some major issues with the game. Making a post on the bug forums to provide more detail.

Is there an ETA for this fix? I've just found 3 people to play in co-op but 2 of us can't even launch the game now.

We're working together with the Nvidia team to get this sorted but no ETA at the moment.

Hi. I am not sure where to post this exactly but I have v. 3.6.117.3735 GOG version and no matter how many times I have tried to install it. I get an installation fail message and saying to contact the software manufacturer. That being said.

MacBook Pro 16" 32gb/1TB 10/32 core less than a week old

I have tried to install it onto the internal storage and external storage all with the same failure results. I can not find any solutions and only have come across one other person from searching for a solution only to have the same issue as I.

Any help in solving this would be really welcomed.

DOS Original installs fine, just not DOS 2.

Update: I realized I did not try GOGs Galaxy Installer, and that solved my failure to install the game. So if anyone is looking up a solution to the install problem, this may help them.
