It has been nearly eight years since Dragon Age: Inquisition launched as the most recent full game in Bioware’s acclaimed RPG series and nearly four years since an unnamed sequel was first teased at the 2018 Game Awards. On Thursday, developer BioWare revealed an official title for that sequel—Dragon Age: Dreadwolf—and confirmed the game won’t be coming until 2023 at the earliest.
In a brief blog post, BioWare confirmed the new game will focus on antagonist Solas, the mysterious elven hedge mage who was introduced as the Dread Wolf in Inquisition. Solas was also central to that game’s 2015 Trespasser DLC and featured heavily in a four-minute Gamescom 2020 behind-the-scenes featurette on the game.
In its announcement, BioWare describes Solas as someone whose “motives are inscrutable and his methods sometimes questionable, earning him a reputation as something of a trickster deity—a player of dark and dangerous games.” The developer also insists that “if you’re new to Dragon Age, you have no need to worry about not having met our antagonist just yet. He’ll properly introduce himself when the time is right.”
