Leaked Dragon Age: Dreadwolf gameplay shows God of War-style combat

The new installment of BioWare's saga, which still has no confirmed release date, was revealed in a video published on Reddit.

Leaked Dragon Age: Dreadwolf gameplay shows God of War-style combat

An anonymous user has leaked footage from Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, the next installment in BioWare's fantasy role-playing franchise. In the absence of official confirmation from the studio or their publisher, Electronic Arts, the images suggest that the combat system will abandon the tactical style in favor of more action-oriented gameplay concepts. Specifically, the studio seems to have been inspired by God of War (2018).

"It's about 20 minutes of gameplay involving one segment/dungeon. The entire gameplay is set within the Gray Warden fortress HQ of Weisshaupt." The user notes that this is a very preliminary alpha, so many textures and elements are still to be implemented.

"Combat is completely in real-time and similar to a hack and slash. I'm told the guiding reference point was the God of War (2018). According to this source, “player has their regular combo attack and then their abilities as well as a special bar which generates allowing you to pull off a special move." At least in this demo, the game does not allow you to control other combatants. "That said, you likely will be able to tell them to execute certain abilities. But apparently that was locked off in the Alpha”

BioWare reached Alpha in October 2022

In a statement posted on the official BioWare blog, BioWare General Manager Gary McKay announced that an important milestone had been reached. Last October, the Canadian developer celebrated that the game had entered alpha: "We can experience the entire game, from the opening scenes of the first mission to the very end. We can see, hear, feel, and play everything as a cohesive experience," he explained. From now on, the focus will be on improving the product.

Dragon Age: Dreadwolf will be available for PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC.
