'Dragon Age 4' Release Date, News & Update: Bioware Responds to Calls for Sequel; Spoiler Alert

Bioware seems to be cooking "Dragon Age" sequel and responds positively to incessant calls for fourth installment. "Dragon Age" is Bioware's most successful game title, boasting several Game of the Year awards.

It is no surprise that Bioware is eager to push "Dragon Age 4" because there is high market demand for the title. Further subtle proof is writer Alexis Kennedy being on board for "undisclosed" project. Looking at his portfolio, Kennedy made similar version of "Dragon Age" and dubbed it "The Last Court."

According to MobileNApps, this undisclosed project could be "Dragon Age 4." The timing provides good guess for sequel because both creators Mike Laidlaw and Patrick Weekes have free hand now that "Mass Effect: Andromeda" is in finishing touches.

Bioware executive producer Mark Darrah also fueled the fire when he hinted via Twitter several "Dragon Age 4" teasers. However, it is apparent that neither 2016 nor 2017 will host the release date. Foreseen reason for the hold up is Bioware trying to avoid their strongest franchises from rivalling each other due to tight schedule, Christian Today said.

Traditionally, Bioware released "Dragon Age" installments after all of "Mass Effect" contents were distributed. Pattern then placed release date at mid-2018 considering the timeframe for development. This will also result to smooth Bioware calendar who will be at recovery mode by then from stress of "Mass Effect: Andromeda."

Now to spoil "Dragon Age 4" storyline a bit, the last installment "Inquisition" left hints about potential continuity. The main protagonist could be Solas with events taking place in Tevinter Imperium. This province holds prominence being the birthplace of another character Dorian.

Interestingly, Darrah hinted another plot when he posted a flaming wolf's head in Twitter. This is a food for thought since Fen'Harel is known as Dread Wolf therefore he could rather be the protagonist. At any rate, Bioware will surely provide updates about "Dragon Age 4" sooner that everybody expects so keep tuned at GameNGuide
