Most of Larian's previous games are part of the ''Divinity'' series, beginning with ''Divine Divinity'' (2002) and ending (for now at least) with ''Divinity: Original Sin'' (2014) and ''Divinity: Original Sin II'' (2017). The latter game has many things in common with ''Baldurs Gate 3'', including the use of "origin characters" who can be chosen as the player character or recruited as companions; physics-based effects like [[surfaces]] and [[Dippable|dippable weapons]]; and the ability to talk to most animals. | |||
The [[Digital Deluxe Upgrade]] contains several references to ''Divinity: Original Sin II'' (DOS2 for short): | |||
* It adds portrait paintings of the DOS2 origin characters [[Portrait of Fane|Fane]], [[Portrait of Ifan ben-Mezd|Ifan ben-Mezd]], [[Portrait of Lohse|Lohse]], [[Portrait of Marcus Miles|Marcus "Beast" Miles]], [[Portrait of Sebille Kaleran|Sebille Kaleran]] and [[Portrait of the Red Prince|the Red Prince]] to Act 1 as loot items. | |||
* Characters who can [[Perform]] gain access to three additional songs which reference DOS2: [[Of Divinity and Sin]], [[The Queen's High Seas]] and [[Sing for Me]]. | |||
* The Divinity Item Pack contains several items from DOS2: the [[Mask of the Shapeshifter]], [[Cape of the Red Prince]], [[Lute of the Merryweather Bard]], [[Needle of the Outlaw Rogue]] and [[Bicorne of the Sea Beast]]. | |||
