The teaser arrives on Dragon Age Day—think about the 4 in December 4 as an A—and supplies a short take a look at among the locales that can seem in Dreadwolf, together with Antiva, Rivain, the Anderfels, and the Gray Warden headquarters of Weisshaupt Fortress.
In a weblog submit, BioWare mentioned the video additionally has “maybe slightly extra for individuals who pay attention carefully.”
Rock and roll destroyed my listening to so I am not a lot use in relation to pinpointing voices and advantageous aural particulars, however there’s positively an ominous tone right here.
We struggle for everybody, and at all times will. The Crows rule Antiva.Glory to the risen gods, they’ve come to ship this world.Gray Wardens do not conceal in our fort. I will not ask good troopers to show tail and run.All of the world will quickly share the peace and luxury of my reign.
Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is nominally set within the Tevinter Imperium, though BioWare confirmed in right this moment’s weblog submit—as we speculated—that gamers shall be transferring round past its borders to lands beforehand unseen. Tevinter is bordered by Antiva to the east and the Anderfels to the west, whereas Rivain is a peninsula on Antiva’s east coast. Appears like a recipe for geopolitical battle to me!
“In previous video games, you solely bought to see a slice of the world,” BioWare wrote. “In Origins, it was Ferelden—a land ravaged by battle and Darkish Spawn. In [Dragon Age 2], it was Kirkwall and its locales—festering with corruption and a darkish underworld. And in Inquisition, you ventured throughout a lot of Orlais—going through down political intrigue as typically as fight.
“This time, nonetheless, rather more of Thedas is yours to see. The desolate, lovely badlands of the Anderfels with curtains of distant mountainous spires. The twisting canals and gleaming towers of Antiva, the place Crows might lurk in any shadow. The turquoise seas of Rivain with its rushes of greenery and hardy sea-faring individuals. And naturally, there’s extra. We felt this was greatest for the story we needed to inform this time and we hope you get pleasure from it as a lot as we’ve got! It’s allowed us to create many extra places than previous video games, together with each some you’ve longed to go to…and a few you’ve by no means heard of earlier than! “
However all of that “extra” must wait. BioWare says the “full reveal” of Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is not going to occur till summer time 2024.
