Dragon Age Teaser Trailer Debuts at Game Awards

BioWare debuted a teaser trailer for the long-awaited next installment in the Dragon Age series on Thursday during The Game Awards. Release date information has yet to be revealed.

The trailer falls short of revealing a title for the game, referring to it simply as Dragon Age. It also keeps story details sparse, although the voiceover calls for a new hero to rise without the aid of prophecy.

"The world of Dragon Age needs a new hero – someone who can take on the evil forces threatening Thedas," reads the trailer's description. "Get a first look at some of the new locations you’ll discover and the factions fighting by your side in the next chapter of Dragon Age."

The Darkspawn and Solas show up in the trailer, and Solas appears to be the game's main antagonist.

BioWare kicked off the Dragon Age franchise in 2009 with Origins. Dragon Age 2 followed in 2011, then Inquisition in 2014.
