Larian would consider bringing their upcoming RPG Divinity: Original Sin to console, CEO Sven Vinke has commented, but that Dragon Commander wouldn't work anymore.
Speaking to Strategy Informer, Vinke mentioned that a console version of Original Sin was simply down to finance and development:
"Original Sin makes sense on console for me, I think, if you do it split screen. Couch co-op would be great... that's purely a financial aspect, we just need to develop it."

Jake Solomon of Firaxis has revealed that they plan on being less 'content-heavy' and a little more 'system-heavy' with XCOM: Enemy Unknown's next dose of DLC; fans 'want more elements'.
