Dragon Age 2 Confirmed, Will Feature "New Hero"


First few details on the highly anticipated sequel hit the web.

We've more or less known BioWare would be releasing Dragon Age 2 some time early next year -- Electronic Arts practically announced as much a few months ago, and Awakening teased a new Dragon Age title for February 1, 2011. But today, EA has officially confirmed the existence of Dragon Age 2, and Game Informer has the first few details on the title as well.

The confirmation came nestled in a press release concerning EA taking over control of Warhammer Online in Europe (via VG247), which lists "Dragon Age 2, the highly anticipated sequel to 2009's 'RPG of the Year' Dragon Age: Origins," as one of the titles that BioWare currently has in development. Furthermore, Game Informer's website is teasing an upcoming cover story for Dragon Age 2, with the tease revealing the new game will feature a "new hero, a different part of the world, and a ton of surprising improvements."

That's about all Game Informer is revealing right now, but the promise of a "new hero" already seems to suggests players won't transfer their character from Dragon Age: Origins into Dragon Age 2, the way players could transfer their version of Commander Shepard from Mass Effect into Mass Effect 2. Still, that's not entirely certain yet, so we'll see what BioWare has to say when more details are revealed.

And we may not have to wait much longer for more details, as BioWare also posted a tweet last night saying that "[tomorrow] will be a great day for BioWare fans." Hopefully that means more Dragon Age 2 details will be released later today? If anything more does pop up, we'll pass it along.
