Meeting day

Although the information that the game is in development is well known, so far BioWare has not really made any official announcement. It is difficult to predict how far the game has been developed and how long it will be before it is officially released.

Back in May 2017, author Alexis Kennedy revealed that he was writing part of the game’s plot in an interview with Eurogamer. The plot he revealed is quite separate from the rest of the game.” At this point, this game is probably still in the early stages of development.

However, with Kotaku’s post claiming that some of the Dragon Age development teams have been pulled into Anthem development, it’s likely to be quite a while before we have any news confirming a release date. action of Dragon Age 4.

Breaking news and rumors

Unofficial confirmations

While BioWare hasn’t made any announcements yet, Dragon Age fans are pretty sure the game is in development. Partly because they have faith in the power of will and partly because BioWare has leaked hints that something is up. It’s a secret that has never been a secret.

The most recent unofficial confirmation was from executive producer Mark Darrah, who tweeted in January 2018 that he was developing both Dragon Age and a major BioWare title, Anthem.

Halfway through my trip to Barcelona!
I’m here showing Anthem internally to EA. I am EP of BOTH DA and Anthem working with @Bio_Warner as Game Director
Anthem’s up next but there are people hard at work on both franchises and I look forward to sharing more in the future

Despite leaving the company, veteran employee Mike Laidlaw tweeted that the Dragon Age series was still in development with a few more titles in mid-2017. Before that, Alexis Kennedy became a well-known author. Ink after a few comments in an interview with Eurogamer became an unofficial confirmation of the existence of this game and his role on the game team.

There is no planned ending for DA. There is an evolving plan that to look 2 games or so. https://t.co/6Tp1lP6d5G

In the interview, Kennedy revealed that he was “given the authority to decide on a part of the plot that is separate from the rest.”

“I don’t want to exaggerate the extent of the content volume [tôi đang viết] ,” Kennedy shared heartbreakingly. “It’s nothing great, but it’s very different. It’s part of the lore but has yet to be confirmed in the game.”

Plot and characters

All of the games in the Dragon Age series are story-driven and characters and fans will be pleased to know that Dragon Age 4 will be no different.

After Mark Darrah tweeted that he had begun working on the project, BioWare general manager Casey Hudson corrected him with his tweet. In this tweet he said that “it’s very early to talk about details” but that the game will “focus on plot & characters.”

Reading lots of feedback regarding Dragon Age, and I think you’ll be relieved to see what the team is working on. Story & character focused.

Too early to talk details, but when we talk about “live” it just means designing a game for continued storytelling after the main story.

There is no word yet on whether this game will be a story game independent of the previous installments or will continue the story of the Inquisition expansion. To be sure, the ending of the Trespasser expansion in Inquisition suggests a continuation of Solas’ story, where we see the Inquisitor chasing the elf to thwart his plans.

We already know that there are writers working on the story and side quests, in an interview with Alexis Kenneedy with Eurogamer in 2017, Alexis confirmed he was developing a “separate” part of the game and focus on the part of the story that has not been included in the game.

Kennedy, who has worked on the Sunless Sea and Fallen London titles, says it’s pretty normal for those familiar with his products. To us this implies that his quests will contain both poignant choices with themes of tragic love and lust, and a sense of discomfort.

New live elements

In January 2018, Kotaku’s Anthem and Dragon Age article wrote that multiple sources informed Kotaku that Dragon Age has been “reworked” to add “animated elements” to the game.

Of course, fans have tended to resent adding these elements to the game for service as EA recently did. Fans have expressed concern that BioWare will let Dragon Age follow the path of Destiny 2, which is always online.

This does not appear to be the case. In her tweet Casey Hudson also asserted that “the survival factors considered are options to continue playing after completing the main storyline. This is what we saw in the game Assassin’s Creed Origins.

Things we want to see

A world like Dragon Age: Inquisition

Hopefully the next Dragon Age game will have a map similar to Dragon Age: Inquisition, which means we expect it to be a massive but not overwhelming open world. It’s a perfect copy of the Dragon Age 2 map and we want that to thrive.

Discover more about Thedas

There is a very interesting part about Thedas that players are not allowed to explore and that is the Tevinter Imperium. Once one of Thedas’ most powerful states, the Imperium is now a shadow of itself. Historically, massive public works and the maintenance of a magocracy have been very interesting and explored parts of Thedas, while allowing the series to continue to explore themes of social injustice. , power and dangers.

The fact that the lands are related to each other throughout the Dragon Age games is enough to make us think it is a stepping stone for Dragon Age 4. However, the ending of the Trespasser expansion of Dragon Age: Inquisition tells us that’s entirely possible when we see the Inquisitor stick the knife into the map of the Imperium and vow to track down Solas.

Solve the open ending

The previous point leads us to this one – We really want the story of Solas to continue unfolding. He’s the perfect character for the next game and the player’s approach to him will be the best story.
