Larian: Divinity Won’t Include AI-Generated Art

‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Studio Larian Says Next ‘Divinity’ RPG Won’t Use AI-Generated Art
Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke said the company’s upcoming role-playing game, Divinity, will not include generative AI-created artwork, responding directly to a fan question.
In his statement, Vincke was explicit about the studio’s approach: “there is not going to be any GenAI art in Divinity”. He also indicated that Larian still sees benefits in the broader technology, even as it draws a firm line on the use of AI-generated art for the project.
The clarification lands amid ongoing debates across gaming and digital content industries about where generative AI belongs in production workflows, and how it affects creative labor, originality, and attribution.
- What happened: A fan asked about AI use, and Vincke responded publicly.
- What Larian said: No generative AI art will be used in Divinity.
- Why it matters: It sets a clear policy from a major studio at a time when AI-assisted creation is becoming a contentious topic in digital media.
