Gamescom thieves pinch two demo PCs, dev offers $5000 reward

4.6
Thieves have made off with two PCs belonging to developer Larian, which contained early versions of two upcoming games.

The developer says the machines stored early builds of Divinity: Dragon Commander and Divinity: Original Sin, and is offering a $5000 reward to anyone who helps lead them to the culprits and the recovery of the PCs.
"If you have any information about the culprits, head to Business Hall 4.2, Booth A-16 to let the team know," asks the dev (via Kotaku).

The developer will no doubt be concerned over the possibility of their unreleased games being leaked online.

Not a great start to the expo.

I hope he leaks stuff soon, I would like to see some info.


me too, but that would be bad for the company that made the games.



Would like to see but hope he doesn't ruin the games by showing to much


I don't think it will ruin the game at all.

I think that there just won't be as much to be excited over because youll already know


If they leaked the full game it will ruin it as you'd not need to buy it with him showing it all

Yeah, it would defiantly ruin it...
