Specifically, Divinity: Original Sin 2 is now a crossbuy title on PlayStation, granting access to both the PS4 and PS5 versions with a single purchase. On Xbox, the game is now cross-generation compatible between Xbox One and Series X|S. A small fee of ¥100 applies to the game on Switch and PlayStation in Japan.
