Today marks the annual celebration of one of BioWare’s most beloved series, Dragon Age with Dragon Age Day. Last year, BioWare celebrated Dragon Age Day with trailers for Dragon Age: Absolution, an animated adaptation that is available to watch on Netflix, and a key cinematic for Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, the next entry in the series. This year, BioWare released a new trailer focused on the world of Thedas with a look at a few of the in-game locations that players can experience in the next game. BioWare also announced that a full reveal of Dragon Age: Dreadwolf will come in Summer 2024.

This is Thedas. Enjoy it while it lasts. 💜

On the official blog post, Game Director Corinne Busche and Senior Production Advisor Mark Darrah talked about celebrating Dragon Age this year and what players can expect from Dreadwolf.

“Dragon Age has always been a franchise about characters,” Darrah said. “Characters to fall in love with or to learn to loath. Those characters need a place in which to live, to fight, and to love—a place that shapes them and the events they find themselves swept up in. Today we explore the place they call home that forms the stage for everything that you do: Thedas. Corinne and the Dragon Age: Dreadwolf team have created a game that celebrates the rich and varied past of the franchise while crafting new experiences and stories. It has been incredible to come back to BioWare and see all of the progress they’ve made, and I’m excited for some of that world to be shared with all of you today.”

Game Director Corinne Busche said:

“Thank you, Mark! I fondly remember playing each entry in the Dragon Age franchise, being completely immersed and enamored in the world you all had built. It amazes me to be here now, working alongside you and the team, to bring new stories and characters (not to mention a few returning characters) to all of the fans of the franchise. Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is the product of hard work and love. We know how much this world means to all of you, how these experiences stay with you. We want to get it right, so we’ve taken our time.

We’re so excited to join in this celebration of all things Dragon Age and the incredible fandom that surrounds it. Within the dev team, we’ve been eagerly awaiting Dragon Age Day as the enthusiasm, stories, charity, and artwork you share motivates us to be our best and create new experiences for all of you.

To celebrate DA Day, we’re sharing a look at a few of the in-game locations you’ll explore on this new adventure (and perhaps a little more for those who listen closely). The stage is set. The Dread Wolf is ready to make his move.”

The trailer features locations from all across Thedas: Treviso in Antlva, Rivain, and Weisshaupt in Anderfels.

This was not the only new trailer that BioWare released. For N7 Day this year, they released a new teaser for the next Mass Effect featuring the first look at a possible new character.
