Dragon Age 4 and Mass Effect release dates may be pushed further into the future due to trouble development. EA is pushing for a live services model.<\/b>
\nWe all know Dragon Age 4 is real and currently under development at BioWare. Since the focus right now is on Anthem, a formal announcement of the next Dragon Age will take some time. Anthem is BioWare\u2019s first live-service multiplayer game. It is in-line with EA\u2019s live-services future; a future where even games like Dragon Age could adapt the live-services model.
The latest piece of Dragon Age 4 news is brought to us by BioWare\u2019s Casey Hudson and Patrick Weekes \u2013 a writer for BioWare. Weeks shared a fairly ominous Tweet at the fourth birthday of Dragon Age Inquisition. The Tweets seems to have suggested that the awaited fourth installment is struggling in development.
If we pair this Tweet with an earlier one from Casey Hudson, the situation becomes clearer.
It seems EA is pushing for an Anthem inspired live services model for Dragon Age 4 and devs are struggling with it. Casey Hudson\u2019s Tweet is contradicting. He assures fans that Dragon Age 4 will be created from the ground up and it will be what Dragon Age game should be. So a narrative-driven open world RPG? So what can Dragon Age learn from Anthem? Anthem\u2019s game design, which is being carried to the Dragon Age and Mass Effect, is based around a live services model.
Dragon Age 4 release date is years away for sure and developers have plenty of time to evolve its game design. One can only hope its evolution isn\u2019t inspired by a live-service game like Anthem.
The other IP Hudson mention is Mass Effect and while it is great to know that Andromeda\u2019s disaster didn\u2019t kill this IP, it is still bummer to know the next Mass Effect could be a live-service game as well.<\/p>\n
