Highguard players have shared their desire for expanded match-ups, and the game’s developer, Wildlight, has listened. Starting today and going through the weekend, Highguard is introducing an “experimental” five-on-five Raid playlist. This isn’t meant as a replacement for the game’s three-on-three Raids, but it could potentially become a full-time part of the game.Per Wildlight’s announcement, the 5v5 Raids will have 10 lives to players instead of the standard six.

When you first look at a Divinity: Original Sin 2 map, you might think it’s a bit small. Surely, there can’t be that much to deal with in such a tiny area, right? Wrong. Original Sin 2 stuffs every map, even the prologue map, with quests, secrets, lore, optional fights, allies, and essential equipment, and as you progress further in the game, things get even more open-ended. You could go off and explore the woods around Reaper’s Coast, for example, or you could take the safe route and clear every quest in the port first to make sure you’ve leveled…
