Thank the Maker?
Here's a story that somehow managed to pass us by: the next Dragon Age game — commonly referred to as Dragon Age 4 — was going to be a 'live service' title, incorporating a "heavy" multiplayer component. But apparently, that vision for the project was scrapped following the success of single-player adventure Star Wars Jedi:...

See you in 2023
BioWare brought a new look at Dragon Age 4 to Gamescom Opening Night Live 2020, and when we say new look, we mean it showed us some concept art. Again. The trailer's over four minutes long, but we only get about then seconds of gameplay footage. And even then, it's clearly very, very early in development. We're not expecting to get...

Of course, it's going to be a PlayStation 5 game, but it's not set to release for a good couple of years. During its latest earnings call, EA stated that while the next...

Dragon Age 4, or whatever it ends up being called, is currently in development at BioWare. The game was put on hold as the developer wrestled with ANTHEM, but now, as far as we know, it's the studio's primary project. That said, we don't know much about it yet, and it'll likely be a while until we get any concrete details. Supposedly, the...

This suggests that a much smaller team is now...

Tactical advantage
"Would you play a Dragon Age Tactics game?" asks series executive producer Mark Darrah over on Twitter.

We suppose that means we could be getting a spin-off Dragon Age game in the future, then. Sure, it's a bit of an...

You can transfer your save to PS4, though
Sad news for those still battling demons on their PlayStation 3: BioWare has confirmed that future downloadable content for Dragon Age: Inquisition will only be available on new-gen consoles.

Myths and legends
Brrrr, the spooky Black Emporium is back in Dragon Age: Inquisition as free DLC this week.

News Endure the Flames with Dragon Age: Inquisition's Free DLC Trailer
Get behind me
Truth be told, we've grown a bit cold on Dragon Age: Inquisition's multiplayer mode.

That said, we're actually tempted to hop back into the action...
