Originally, the premiere of the game was planned for autumn this year, more precisely for September. However, due to internal problems of the studio, it had to be postponed until early 2024.
Now BioWare and EA have set a new internal release window for the game, but that might not close either. All of this information comes from Jeff Grubb of Giant Bomb, a reputable and credible industry specialist.
Based on this information, Grubb mentions that the release of the new Dragon Age: Dreadwolf game is currently scheduled for summer 2024. However, Grubb also warns that the release of the game may be pushed back even further. He doesn’t talk about development issues, but it’s clear that since the game went into alpha in fall 2022, things have started to fall apart as it should be out now or at least close to release.

What’s next for the fan-awaited next part of the saga?
Grubb concludes by noting that EA may have an incentive to push the game to early 2025 to gain publicity just before the end of the fiscal year. However, this will only become possible when the game is pushed deep into 2024, which is also unlikely. While it makes some sense, every day a game is not available, EA loses money on it. In other words, when she’s ready to go, she’ll come out.
As noted, he doesn’t mention development issues, but something is clearly wrong. The game has been in alpha since last year. She should have left long ago. Clearly something went wrong, and if it matters, BioWare just laid off 50 people . And if the development of the production resembles previous BioWare games – and the latest round of layoffs also indicates this – then it has very serious management problems.
