Bioware has confirmed the title of the fourth Dragon Age game. Dragon Age: Dreadwolf will continue the story of where it left off in the Tresspasser DLC of Dragon Age Inquisition. Solas, fresh from his betrayal, is on the sidelines and the nations of Thedas are demanding major diplomatic and national security changes after the defeat of Corypheus.
Its title, Dreadwolf, refers to Solas himself, who was revealed to be the Dread Wolf Fen’Harel, indirectly responsible for the events of the Inquisition.
The game has been developed on Bioware for some time, with only a strange provocation or update to satisfy the appetite of anxious fans. Inquisition was released in 2014, with the Tresspasser DLC coming a year later. The series has been inactive ever since. In the years following the Inquisition, Bioware went through an interesting period involving a Mass Effect spin-off, a new failed IP, and the strange (and later reversed) decision to turn Dragon Age into a service multiplayer game in direct. similar to Destiny.

The Dragon Age community is as dedicated to their favorite role-playing game universe as the Mass Effect community is to theirs, and for the same reasons. The world-famous construction work and the profound character of Bioware made it an instant hit among fantasy fans.
Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is now in the unenviable position of restoring faith in a studio that, at least outwardly, seemed to have lost its way. What the biggest fans of the series want is DA, as they have always known him, a wide-ranging, character-based role-playing game where choices and conversations matter. If Bioware can recover some of that ancient magic (but not Bioware Magic), Dragon Age: Dreadwolf could be the game that puts the publisher back on the path to greatness.
Anyway, the Great Egg Hunt in Thedas is getting closer and closer, and I, for one, am excited to make an omelette. You can’t hide from me, Solas.
