List of best RPG games like Divinity: Original Sin 2

Here’s a list of some games that fans of Divinity: Original Sin 2 should explore.

1. Baldur’s Gate 3

It’s no surprise that Larian Studios’ own follow-up to the classic Baldur’s Gate series shares DNA with Divinity: Original Sin 2. Baldur’s Gate 3 combines turn-based combat with the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition ruleset, offering a deep tactical experience.

The game features highly reactive world-building, rich dialogue options, and multiplayer co-op that makes every choice impactful. If you loved the freedom of interacting with the environment and your companions in Divinity, this game is a natural next step.

2. Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire

Obsidian’s Pillars of Eternity II is a classic-style isometric RPG with a strong emphasis on story and character development. Combat can be played in real-time with pause, or a turn-based mode which was added in one of the patches. Similar to Baldur’s Gate 3 it requires careful positioning and spell management.

Set in a sprawling archipelago, it allows for exploration, naval combat, and a narrative shaped heavily by player choice. Fans of deep lore and party dynamics will feel right at home.

3. Wasteland 3

Wasteland 3 offers tactical, turn-based combat reminiscent of Divinity: Original Sin 2 set in a post-apocalyptic setting. The game emphasizes strategy, environmental interaction, and meaningful dialogue choices.

Tasked by a local dictator to hunt down his three treacherous children, you must navigate a frozen, faction-torn land, making morally gray decisions that determine the fate of both Colorado and the struggling Arizona Rangers.

4. Disco Elysium

While combat is not the focus, Disco Elysium shares Divinity: Original Sin 2’s dedication to narrative and player agency. Its RPG mechanics revolve around dialogue, skill checks, and choices that shape the protagonist and the world around them.

If you value rich storytelling and nuanced role-playing, this is a must-play.

5. Tyranny

Tyranny takes a different approach by exploring a world where evil has already won. Its isometric perspective, party-based combat, and branching storylines allow you to make morally complex choices that shape the world.

While not as focused on turn-based combat as Divinity, the game’s emphasis on dialogue, consequences, and role-playing will resonate with fans of narrative-driven RPGs.

6. Pathfinder: Kingmaker & Wrath of the Righteous

Based on the tabletop Pathfinder RPG, it is a classic isometric CRPG where you explore the untamed Stolen Lands, defeat threats, and eventually found and rule your own kingdom. The game blends deep party-based role-playing and tactical combat with a unique kingdom management system, where your decisions shape the growth, stability, and fate of your realm.

Kingmaker is about building and ruling a kingdom in a frontier sandbox, while Wrath of the Righteous is a darker, more epic campaign about wielding near-divine power to save (or reshape) the world.

7. Shadowrun: Dragonfall & Hong Kong

Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Shadowrun: Hong Kong are standalone tactical RPGs set in the Shadowrun universe-a dystopian future where cyberpunk technology, megacorporations, magic, and fantasy races coexist. Both games focus on story-driven campaigns, squad-based turn-based combat, and player choice.

8. Dragon Age: Origins

Dragon Age: Origins is a story-driven fantasy RPG set in the war-torn kingdom of Ferelden, where a looming demonic invasion known as the Blight threatens to destroy the land.
It emphasizes player choices with its multiple different origins stories that shape how the world treats you.

With its tactical party-based combat, deep companion interactions, and meaningful moral decisions, Dragon Age: Origins delivers a classic, choice-driven adventure where your actions determine the fate of the kingdom.
