RPG fans looking forward to the third title in the Dragon Age series to be released are sure to enjoy this new trailer as well as the announcement of the Dragon Age Inquisition release date, which will be on October 7th, 2014.
Dragon Age Inquisition is an action role-playing video game currently under development by BioWare and is the sequel to Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II. Check out the new trailer below.
Gameplay and Storyline
Mike Laidlaw, creative director on Dragon Age: Inquisition, explains: “The Inquisitor stands out from just anybody in the world of Dragon Age in large part because the Inquisitor has undergone a magical mark…as a result of being at an explosion,”
When questioned about what the mark actually does, Laidlaw continued: “No one knows,” – “But it does give the Inquisitor control over the rifts that are opening up between the worlds. So you have demons pouring out into all sorts of places…and you can sort of seal them and close them.”
The game promises to bring a rich and immersive experience, combining the best elements of its predecessors while introducing new features. Players will take on the role of the Inquisitor, tasked with saving the world of Thedas from a mysterious and powerful force. The game will feature a vast open world, allowing players to explore diverse environments, from lush forests to desolate wastelands.
Character Customization and Combat
One of the standout features of Dragon Age Inquisition is its deep character customization. Players can choose from multiple races, including humans, elves, dwarves, and the horned Qunari. Each race comes with its own unique abilities and backstory, adding depth to the player’s experience. Additionally, players can select from various classes, such as warriors, mages, and rogues, each offering different combat styles and skills.
Combat in Dragon Age Inquisition is designed to be both strategic and action-packed. Players can switch between controlling their character in real-time combat and issuing commands to their party members. This hybrid system allows for a more dynamic and engaging combat experience. The game also introduces a tactical camera, enabling players to pause the action and plan their moves carefully, making it easier to manage complex battles.

Exploration and Side Quests
Dragon Age Inquisition places a strong emphasis on exploration. The game’s open-world design encourages players to venture off the beaten path and discover hidden secrets, treasures, and lore. The world of Thedas is filled with diverse regions, each with its own unique challenges and stories. From ancient ruins to bustling cities, players will find a wealth of content to explore.
Side quests play a significant role in Dragon Age Inquisition, offering players additional opportunities to gain experience, loot, and deepen their understanding of the game’s world and characters. These quests range from simple tasks to complex, multi-part missions that can significantly impact the main storyline. Completing side quests can also strengthen the Inquisitor’s alliances and influence within the game world.
Multiplayer and Post-Launch Content
In addition to its rich single-player experience, Dragon Age Inquisition also features a cooperative multiplayer mode. Players can team up with friends to tackle challenging missions and earn rewards. This mode offers a different perspective on the game’s world, allowing players to experience it from the viewpoint of various agents of the Inquisition.
BioWare has also committed to supporting Dragon Age Inquisition with post-launch content. This includes downloadable content (DLC) packs that will introduce new storylines, characters, and challenges. This ongoing support ensures that players will have plenty of reasons to return to the game long after its initial release.
