Dragon Age: Dreadwolf appears to be the next big title from developer BioWare and publisher EA, though we've heard very little official information about the title ever since its name was revealed. Things have been heating up in recent months though, with BioWare promising more news about the title this summer, and now EA seems to have all but confirmed the title will be launching within the next 12 months.
Earlier today, EA revealed that it has two currently unannounced titles that it expects to launch within the current fiscal year, though it doesn't give us any further details as to what these games are outside the fact that one of them is a partner title. With the amount of leaks and hints from insiders such as Jeff Grubb, it is difficult to imagine neither of these titles being Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, which has been tipped for a 2024 release in the past.
Of course, we already know about Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, so you can argue that it's not an unannounced title, but it's missing from the list of titles entirely, and it feels as though the publisher is simply referring to unannounced release dates rather than complete projects. It was also recently claimed yet again by Grubb that the title EA is referring to is Dreadwolf, so it seems likely we'll be heading to Ferelden again at some point this year.
Now the only question remains is when BioWare will finally give us a release date and put us all out of our misery? With the summer fast approaching, we already have a number of events in the pipeline that could potentially house a Dragon Age: Dreadwolf release date reveal, the primary candidate being Summer Game Fest. Back when the title was called Dragon Age 4, we saw the game announced during The Game Awards, so it's showing up again at a Geoff Keighley event seems likely.
We could also see Dreadwolf reemerge at Xbox's upcoming showcase, which we know is taking place next month, while PlayStation will also likely have a big showcase at some point in the next few months as well. We don't have an E3 for publishers to attend anymore, so it will be one of the big platform holders or Geoff Keighley that has the pleasure of revealing Dreadwolf's release date, but all we can do right now is watch the showcases as they pop up and keep our fingers crossed.
Summer Game Fest has announced its first round of partners for this year's event.
We're getting closer and closer to gaming's annual announcement season. Every summer sees the industry turn out for a few weeks of pre-recorded presentations and live broadcasts, all showcasing what's coming up in the near future. With E3 now sadly a thing of the past, the biggest of these events is now Summer Game Fest, created and hosted by Geoff Keighley. Whatever games you enjoy, it sounds like this will be worth watching — a lot of game developers and publishers are taking part.
Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Rockstar Games’ parent company Take-Two Interactive, just confirmed a more specific release window for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI.
Today, alongside its financial report, Sony announced a new leadership structure for its PlayStation division (Sony Interactive Entertainment). Following the departure of Jim Ryan, they had been looking for a new Chief Executive Officer; as it turns out, they found two.
A while back Ubisoft revealed about a billion Assassin's Creed projects. The first of these to leap into the carefully placed haystack of release was Mirage, which I liked. Up next, it seems, is the artist formally known as Assassin's Creed: Codename Red. All we knew about red was that it would be set in feudal Japan, something fans have been clamouring for for literal years. Now we know that it's an AC game set in feudal Japan called Assassin's Creed Shadows, and it's getting an "official cinematic world premiere trailer" debut on YouTube tomorrow, at 5pm BST.
With the Xbox Games Showcase less than a month away, rumors circulated about what could appear. Gears 6 and Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War are favorites, but The Initiative’s Perfect Dark may be another. After reports from Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb about it being in “rough shape,” insider Nate the Hate said it could make an appearance.
Industry insider Jeff Grubb once again reaffirms his claim that Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is launching this year. This is despite recent information from EA indicating that it could be with us as late as March 2025, sparking fears that we're still almost a year away from the long-awaited sequel.
The wait for Dragon Age: Dreadwolf has been extremely long for fans, but it sounds like the end of the line is finally in sight, and it might have been worth it.
BioWare has had a rough few years. Following the critical and commercial success of Dragon Age: Inquisition, the studio moved on to Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem, two games that abandoned the tenets of previous BioWare titles under mounting publisher pressure.
It's been a rough week for Xbox following multiple studio closures decided by Microsoft and the severe blowback from fans and fellow developers alike, not to mention reports of Perfect Dark having a rough time, but a new rumor suggests State of Decay 3, at least, might be coming along well.
With Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut due to release on May 16th for PC, one has to wonder about Sony’s next PC port of an established PlayStation title. Though not official, noted leaker billbil-kun reported on Dealabs that it’s Sony Santa Monica’s God of War Ragnarok.
Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, the next entry in the series of beloved dating sims with rpgs crudely affixed with Blu Tack to their walls, is set to arrive by the end of March next year. That’s according to an updated product slate released as part of a recent quarterly earnings report, as spotted by VGC and given the Jeff Grubb seal of approval.
