BioWare celebrates 2021 with new Dragon Age 4 artwork

BioWare has published new artwork for the next Dragon Age game.

The concept art was posted by the game’s executive producer on Twitter, who wished fans a Happy New Year.

BioWare released the first full trailer for the new Dragon Age game last month. The video offers the first look at the RPG instalment since Gamescom in August, when the EA studio said the game was still in early development.

“We’re still in early production but we thought it was time to give you the very first look at how BioWare’s passionate team of developers are crafting this very special game,” the studio said at the time.

“Go behind-the-scenes at BioWare and meet some of the passionate developers creating the next Dragon Age,” reads the official blurb. “Get a glimpse at new environments and characters as the team discusses how they are approaching the development of this epic fantasy RPG.”

EA said last October that it doesn’t expect to release the next Dragon Age game before its fiscal year 2023, which begins on April 1, 2022.

“You should assume that Dragon Age—it’s out there, we’ve talked about it publicly that it’s in the works—it probably comes after fiscal 22,” EA CFO Blake Jorgensen said.

“But we typically don’t give multi-year guidance this early in the year, or multi-year guidance period,” he added, “so I don’t want to start giving [fiscal] 23 guidance now that I’ve started to hint on 22, but you should assume it’s out there and plans are underway for that product.”
