» PC Format - Reviewed by Dan Underwood, [59%]. "Ostensibly worthy, but fundamentally uninspiring – the only value is the size."

» Worth Playing - [7.5/10] - "If you’re feeling patient and want a massive adventure then BD is worth a look."

» Boomtown - Reviewed by Steinar Sigurdsson, [7/10]. "Beyond Divinity is like a rigged slot machine; you always win the same amount you put in, but the jackpot never comes. You’ll continue to play because you have nothing to lose, but it’s not as exciting." (September 21, 2004)

» Game Over Online - Reviewed by Steven Carter, [65%]. "The problem with the story in Beyond Divinity -- advertised as “deep and detailed” on the game’s web site -- is that there isn’t really one." (July 6, 2004)

» IGN - Reviewed by Barry Brenesal, [8.0/10]. "If the game balance had matched the creativity and attention to overall design put into this title, I would probably have given it a 90, because the detail of construction and depth of the environment are truly excellent." (May 6, 2004)

» Wicked Toast - Preview with screen shots by Chris O'Regan. "If they can sort out the issues detailed above Larian could have another winner on their hands." (February 9, 2004)

» Play.tm - Reviewed by Sam Gibson, [68%]. "I just plain old got bored with the game. The occasional clunkiness of both the presentation and the interface didn't bother me, but when the thrill of getting new items began to diminish under the realisation that the developers had little else up their sleeve other than to keep heaping monsters and loot onto me then I just gave up." (2004)
