That wasn't so hard, was it?
Well, it looks as though BioWare's found a way to whisper through its tightly sealed lips regarding Dragon Age: Inquisition's first downloadable expansion, Jaws of Hakkon, and its release date on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3.

News Unfortunately, You'll Have to Wait to Play This Dragon Age: Inquisition DLC on PS4 and PS3
It looks good, though
In what's been one of the strangest DLC launches that we've seen in recent years, Dragon Age: Inquisition's first downloadable expansion, Jaws of Hakkon, released today on Xbox One and PC. Meant as a surprise, the content was leaked before EA or BioWare had a chance to officially unveil its existence, and this has meant that...
News Dragon Age: Inquisition's Success Doesn't Guarantee a Sequel
Developer talks about the future, and Dragon Age II

Tell me more
It's been out for a little while on PC now, but consoles have finally nabbed Dragon Age: Inquisition's rather hefty patch. The download makes dozens of tweaks to little bits and pieces of the role-playing game, and as such, it doesn't fix or add anything too significant. That said, a common complaint from fans regarding a lack of party...
News It Sounds Like PS4's Mass Effect Won't Just Be Dragon Age: Inquisition in Space
Dragons can't even breathe in space
Given Dragon Age: Inquisition's critical success, it wasn't long before BioWare fans began to wonder how the title's formula would affect the studio's sci-fi property, Mass Effect. Distancing itself from previous games in the series, Inquisition's foundation is built upon open, explorable maps, and a whole lot of...

News You Lot Have Slain Over 2.5 Million Dragons in Dragon Age: Inquisition
Swooping isn't that bad
Dragons are some of the most powerful enemies that you can attempt to slaughter in Dragon Age: Inquisition, but that hasn't stopped players from destroying over 2.5 million of them.

Review Dragon Age: Inquisition (PlayStation 4)
Everybody expects the Inquisition
BioWare has had to endure a rocky road of late. Mass Effect 3 didn't sit well with everyone, and although there was a decent game at its core, Dragon Age II missed the mark almost entirely when it came to being a worthy successor to the great Dragon Age: Origins. As a result, a lot rests on Dragon Age: Inquisition's...

Sounds massive
The BioWare N7 day roundtable stream is now over, and although we basically sat through half an hour of developers rattling off their favourite Mass Effect moments for the sake of seeing several pieces of brand new concept art, we did actually manage to nab some new info regarding the next title in the series.

Forged in the fires of friendship
It certainly hasn't received the same sort of backlash that Mass Effect 3 got when it was announced that Commander Shepard's final chapter would sport its own co-op component, but perhaps that's led to Dragon Age: Inquisition's multiplayer offering flying a little under the radar. Indeed, much like the sci-fi...
News Still Not Sure About Dragon Age: Inquisition? Make a Choice With This New Trailer
Right and wrong
As a studio, BioWare has always prided itself on interactive storytelling, and although many will argue that the Canadian developer has disappointed with its most recent releases, interesting narrative design remains a core aspect of the company's identity.

News Phew, Dragon Age: Inquisition's Multiplayer Will Not Affect the Single Player Story
Thank the Maker
We remember the negative commotion that surrounded Mass Effect 3's co-op mode all too well, and so we were a little worried about whether or not Dragon Age: Inquisition's newly announced multiplayer would have any effect on the single player story, if only so we didn't have to wade through countless hate-filled forum posts...
News Here's Dragon Age: Inquisition's Inevitable Co-Op Trailer
One for all
Any fan of Dragon Age: Origin's deadly rogue Leliana will no doubt be excited to hear her ask for your help in Dragon Age: Inquisition's freshly announced co-op mode, so we suppose that's a pretty effective way to begin this multiplayer focused trailer. It's not a long one, only clocking in at about a minute and a half, but we do get a...

Gamescom 2014 Dragon Age: Inquisition Looks Remarkably Pretty in These New Trailers
Nobody expects the Dragon Age: Inquisition
EA started its fairly lousy Gamescom conference this morning with a lengthy demo of incoming RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Veteran hangs up his N7 armour

Hero's favourite public forum at Comic-Con 2014
Hotly anticipated PlayStation 4 follow-up Mass Effect 4 is in a weird sort of promotional limbo right now, strangely nestling somewhere between announced and unannounced.

Hot stuff
Upcoming PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition had a rather tame showing at EA's E3 press conference last month.
