The first update on Dragon Age: Dreadwolf in 2023 is here, but it’s not coming through BioWare and EA or anyone working on the game, but a new and unofficial report. And according to this report, the game is still some way from release. While rumors and general speculation have suggested that the game could be released this year, the new report casts doubt on this possibility, noting that the game has important things to fix.

According to the report, the game is “missing features, completed character lines, and still contains the remnants” of an earlier version of the game that was reportedly scrapped in 2021 and was also said to be much more focused on multiplayer than single . player focused. That said, the report notes that some of the game’s multiplayer components are still lingering in-game. For example, it is noted that there is a central hub apparently reminiscent of games like Destination. However, as you may know, Dragon Age: Inquisition had its own central hub.

Also as Dragon Age: Inquisition, the game sees players recruit and grow their group over time and by completing missions, and these characters will populate the hub area where they can be used and modified through equipment. And maybe like the war table in it Dragon Age Inquisitionthere will be a “mirrored portal” where plays go from the hub area to missions.

The report also mentions that combat is “hack n’ slash”, which suggests more action-oriented Inquisition and the second game and less tactical than Origin. The report even mentions that you can’t control squad mates, just select their skills. A battle wheel compared to the battle wheel in FinalFantasy 15 is also mentioned.

The report concludes by noting that it expects the game to release in 2024, not 2023, based on the current state of the game and its development. And for what it’s worth, we’ve always heard things about the game and its development that suggested a 2023 release date was highly unlikely.
