We all know that most of BioWare is hard at work on ANTHEM ahead of its release in February next year, but a small team has been keeping the studio's next Dragon Age project cooking all the while. We don't yet know what the next instalment of the fantasy role-playing series will be, but we just might be hearing a little bit more about it in the near future.
In a new blog post, BioWare's Casey Hudson writes: "If you’ve been following these blogs, or myself and Mark Darrah on Twitter, you know we’re also working on some secret Dragon Age stuff. Dragon Age is an incredibly important franchise in our studio, and we’re excited to continue its legacy. Look for more on this in the coming month (though I won’t tell you where to look…)"
It's a tease that's got our attention, but realistically, it could be anything, and we kind of doubt that BioWare is going to go ahead and reveal the next Dragon Age game before ANTHEM hits store shelves. But hey, you never know.
Maybe we'll get something at The Game Awards? We'll have to wait and see.

The wording screams The Game Awards but... Surely that'd mean a teaser or even a reveal? Would they do that before ANTHEM launches? How strange.
Please don't be Dragon Age Online.
@Splat Dragon Age MOBA exclusive to mobile.
I don't have a phone...
@Splat with the current state of bioware and EA it's bound to be plagued by online.
it's the only games EA are willing to publish these days because it's the only genre they can squeeze money from. exept for a way out but that was a special case.
so for those expecting a SP dragon age,it's just futile hope.
It will be the Anthem equivalent of Dragon Age. Always online multiplayer, with a smug comment at the end about "no gameplay loot boxes, cosmetic items only", and someone in the audience at the Game Awards will cheer way too enthusiastically about it.
The last DA game was absolutely diabolical so.. naw.
@NintendoFan4Lyf Surely they wouldn't make a Dragon Age collection before they make a Mass Effect collection...?
in this day and age it will be one of 2 things, a remaster collection or a f2p mobile game
Nope.
Dragon Age: Inquisition killed all the love I had for the franchise.
Just port Origins and the ME trilogy over to PS4.
I don't understand the Inquisition hate and I am in a very Dragon Age-y mood, I almost restarted playing DA2 yesterday... So I hope it's some good news!
@ShogunRok your forgetting something
The Dragon age game still suck next games .
@ShogunRok yeah i think it will be something smaller scale,like a dragon age collection for current gen.
i mean announcing a brand new dragon age game would drive away the hype for anthem and that game can use all the hype it gets.
or maybe they want to announce a new dragon age to assure people that they have not left SP behind. (if the next dragon age will even be SP).
@FullbringIchigo(triple layered chick voice)
EA Games,
(whispers)
Ruin Evvvverything!
I too hope it's a Dragon Age collection - even though I already own DA:O and DAII.
I quite enjoyed all three Dragon Age games (yes, even the second one), but I seem to be in the minority there, so I guess I'll just quietly slip out of the room.
I'm not holding out much hope for this announcement though. The timing is just all wrong.
I was hoping for a Dragon Age reveal at E3 as I assumed that they had been working on it for a few years since the last one. Pretty sure they said everyone was working on Anthem not just the Mass Effect team.
Not sure what this can be then, not going to get my hopes up.
I'm sure knowing Bioware it will be something lame like a character model on a screen.
I think Dragon Age Inquisition gets a bit too much hate for what it was. Yes it was bloated but cut away the fat and I thought it was a pretty good BioWare RPG. The last expansion was really good, too.
Personally I don't think any of the Dragon Age games have been truly amazing but Origins and Inquisition have some great role-playing moments if you really get into them.
@Kindaichi would be a shame since i would realy like a kingdoms of amalur remaster.
I really liked DA2. It had some great writing in parts. I'd be up for a remaster of the first two games.
@Kindaichi there is a chance that we will get a remaster since THQ nordic bought the rights for the game,but EA is being somewhat difficult about it.
but if a remaster is indeed coming and selling well,then a sequel won't be that far off either. just hoping it won't be online and full of MTX tnx to EA.
yes I knew it.i l💗ve dragon age. I always play as a mage.one of the best franchises ever.word up son
A mobile experience, most probably
@Feena dragon age is amazing.great franchises.word up son
@ShogunRok but you gave dragon age a 9on your review.so what do you mean tidbit amazing or any of them had been amazing.a 9 is amazing that's what you gave dragon age inquisition on your review😒.word up son
@Gremio108 I like dragon age 2 better than 1 so your not the only one word up son
@NintendoFan4Lyf nope it's going to be a new dragon age not a collection.word up son
I personally loved Dragon Age Inquisition, so I can't wait to hear this new information.
I also wouldn't be surprised if they announced Dragon Age VR. It won't be my cup of tea, but I can see how it will appeal to others ... Maybe.
@Splat no kidding...pleeeeze font let it be
@Nerdfather1 that would be awesome! VR rocks games into a new dimension
Card game, never mind.
@playstation1995 definitely one of the best...but personally I'd rather swing a sword.
@Kindaichi @MrBert No.. please Noyes, I loved Morrigon...best character of the bunch
@Spectra I agree, Origins was the best. In fact, probably my favorite game.
@ShogunRok dont say that. Mobile games suck
Yep, the dragon age inquisition hate is hilarious, it was a really good game.
I see either online or a collection. If they announce a new game I would be shocked. (I would youtube it though at this point. DA games are all over the place in terms of gameplay and storytelling...I'm not doing that rollercoaster again.)
@ShogunRok Obviously DAI wasn't hated too much, or at least Bioware was oblivious to it (go figure) considering they basically copy-pasted the open world and quest structure directly into ME Andromeda.
@playstation1995 I did think Inquisition was amazing at the time, but that was early in the PS4's life cycle and there have been better RPGs since.
@ShogunRok true I believe a game is amazing is always amazing.i still think syphon filter is the best ps1 games I ever play and it's still is.word up son
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi I agree dragon age is a amazing game. people hate everything this day. ea .bethesta.arner brothers square enix .ea.they are bunch of Hippocrites.word up son
Is it sad that I'd buy a Mass Effect trilogy, or Dragon Age remaster over Anthem?
Won't hold my breath to it..
Maybe some collaboration skin/item for Anthem,
Or some Comic / Mobile stuff..
I liked Dragon Age Inquisition, not as much as the first, but still a fun game. I did play DA2, but instead of scratching the DA playing itch, it ended up being a slow peel of a bandaid on a hairy arm.
My guess is this will be a DA4 teaser for PS5. I remember Bioware regretting not making Inquisition just a PS4 game so it could have been better throughout.
If its a phone game I'm going to laugh until I burst a blood vessel.
Dragon Age is the one franchise I hate that everyone else seems to love. I wish I could love it.
I've been praying for a new dragon age game since forever. Solas has to be one of the best characters in all of gaming history
I really hope its a dragon age collection because that would mean a Mass Effect Trilogy collection could be coming as well.
Dragon Age Collection would be nice so I don't have to power on my PS3 for the older titles.
@RBMango that’s how I felt about Elder Scrolls series for the longest time. I bought that game day 1 back in 2012 and hated it with fury. Bought it 3 times between then and 2017. Didn’t play it until after I finished God Of War because I was aching for an RPG. I loved every minuets of it! Or should I say every 231 hours of it! So yeah, I get it.
As far as Dragon Age though. Man I love that game! Part 2 was complete trash but Inquisition is amazing! I’m hoping for some new news on the series.
@QualityGeezer see maybe I’m weird because I keep hearing that from fellow lovers of the game but I dropped him from my team ASAP. People dislike Cassandra and she’s my favorite female game character ever. To each his ow I guess...
I will say one thing about Inquisition, the dragon fights and the music playing whilst fighting them are absolutely brilliant.
@AhmadSumadi when you find out during the dlc who solas actually is blew my mind. @ApostateMage the soundtrack is brilliant even before you start the game up the mages and warriors marching is epic
