Like I've said before, the PS4 has already been unveiled and several multiplatform next-gen titles along with it. It makes no sense for them to wait for that event unless they're unveiling at the event, but that doesn't make sense either. Dragon Age is not a console-seller and the franchise is basically up in the air for a lot of gamers.

That makes sense. Unless DA3 is indeed such a looker of a game that it would show well at MS's event purely on the visuals. Maybe it ends up really surprising people that way?

2 months between now and E3 is a decent chunk of time for EA to do something either on their own or at the MS event in late April. I guess the next possible timeframe to watch for possible announcements or teases could be GDC this coming week (doubtful) or the following Tuesday, April 2nd with Game Informer's new monthly cover unveil. Although, I guess Game Informer's next cover could be Battlefield 4 since they're showing that off this week.

I think DG said either on Twitter or the forum that GDC wouldn't be the kind of place for a reveal... unless I imagined that. :-S

Isn't April when GI does their Game Infarcer cover?

YES! WE SHALL EAT COOKIES AND WAIT TOGETHER!!!  *Ahem* Anyone want to watch tumbleweeds blow by whilst eating cookies and listen to both the Dragon Age Soundtracks.. lol

[LolaLei]

I'm just gonna presume that the earliest we'll hear anything is June. That way, if they reveal the game sooner then it'll be a bonus.

*Sighs* That sounds like a good idea. I was just really hoping for info at Pax so I am kind of let down... But I know that becuase of this Bioware is taking their time and hopefully DA3 will be amazing

I know that there are rumours circulating that EA may have struck up a deal with Xbox, but I wouldn't put any stock in that.

I don't put any stock in that either. They're not going to start making multi-platform franchises XBox exclusives when they're not performing as well as their major competitors, and the idea of a brokered deal for exclusive reveals of multi-platform titles at a presentation is nonsensical.

LolaLei wrote...

Out of curiosity, what do you think is going on with development process?

I think the game is going to be multi-generational and that that decision was made well into development, causing them to fall behind schedule. We have to remember, Inquisition is BioWare's first game using the FrostBite 2 engine. Any little hiccup during development could cause a lengthy delay. Now think about the problems developing for an entirely new console would add.
I couldn't speculate on specifically when I think the game will come out, but I honestly think that if the game were in a presentable state they would have unveiled it already, next-gen or not. I'm not expecting it to be released this year and I really wouldn't be surprised if they don't unveil it until E3 or even later.

I highly doubt it. Even if they've been developing for next-gen from the start I doubt it will be a pretty enough game to justify getting a spotlight like that. Remember, BioWare said that when they unveil the game they will show gameplay and "leave no room for speculation." Microsoft wouldn't give them time to show off a pretty Blur trailer, play through a section of the game and talk about the game enough to squash speculation. It's going to be multi-platform and very likely multi-generational. They won't dedicate that much of the event to a game that won't move NextBox units.

I think you might be onto something there. 

I know they want to make sure everything is perfect before showing us anything, so that would likely have something to do with it too, which would take longer this time round due to the new engine (like you said).

@discosuperfly I believe April 26th is the rumored date. If nothing is announced in that function then hopefully during e3. I will take my tequila shots now lol.

Hahaha these forums are awesome because none of my friends play Dragon Age and its nice to finally have people to talk to because every time I start talking about DA3 they give me this odd look like "What the Hell is she talking about"!! Ahh Well Spread the love!!

My money is on the Microsoft Event in April, especially if EA is doing the timed exclusive deal with them. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

*Cries* Bu-But.. I don't wanna wait anymore .. GIMMIE NEWS NOW!!!! (Just Kidding)

The rumor about that deal doesn't have any actual basis in reality. It spawned from a bunch of games not being at the Sony event, nothing more. Some people seem to think that Sony should have showed off every game that every developer is working on for PS4 and that somehow Microsoft will do it instead.

I never thought I would be saying this, but I think you're being a tad bit too optimistic. They want to do a reveal that leaves no one guessing, that's the goal, and, presumably, the whole point of keeping us waiting. The reveal could still end up being a flashy CGI teaser and a few screen-shots (and I wouldn't really care, hell, it's the game I'm interested in, not the marketing).

I take everything they say at this point with a truckload of salt, not because I think they're lying or trying to be misleading but because they're telling us what they know now and things change.

That's rumoured to be April 26th, right?

I think Microsoft's event is virtually confirmed to be that date, yes. Some gaming media were hearing things from their sources a few weeks ago.

I wonder if this thread will manage to reach 200 pages before The Great Reveal?
