Larian Studios has announced that the alpha for their Kickstarted project Divinity: Original Sin has now begun, giving backers of the game a chance to sample the first 15-20% of the full game, 10-15 hours of content, and most of the starting city - Cyseal.
Those who backed the Kickstarter "need only register or sign in on the Larian Vault, enter the email they used to back the game, and they will find a Steam key waiting for them under the Kickstarter tab." The finished version of the game is expected to be with us in February of next year.
