Executive Producer of Dragon Age, Mark Darrah, Drops Major Hints at Future of the Franchise
A few weeks ago, we reported here that the Executive Producer of the Dragon Age franchise, Mark Darrah, was dropping some not so subtle hints about the fourth installment of the Dragon Age franchise. Darrah is infamous for his playfully vague tweets and other cryptic messages when it comes to a series that is well loved in the BioWare community. Well, fans – he’s at it again – let’s see what he’s got in store for us this time:

He tweeted this seemingly unassuming picture, but if you look at the teaser he gave weeks ago – you’ll see that it is directly correlated to the preview image he gave for the fourth installment of Dragon Age. Fans quickly noticed the position of the rook (at first glance) – E3. In case you are unfamiliar with why that simple connection would make fans like myself absolutely lose our shit, E3 is the largest video game industry convention in the world where developers and publishers all over gather to reveal the most epic of gaming news. Rook on E3 – we’ll bite. Though that excitement quickly nullified a bit when he amended it with these two simple tweets:
Honest to god I no idea the rook was on E-3 when I posted this.
You are all are amazing
And frightening. pic.twitter.com/KvPhzXQ5A6— Mark Darrah (@BioMarkDarrah) November 14, 2016
Semi vindicated: it's E6 (or c3 from the other side)

Like we said in our original coverage of the first teaser, which can be seen below, it may not be much but for die hard fans, it is enough to get the conspiracy theories rolling! Based on the ending events of the final DLC for Dragon Age Inquisition, the search for Solas (AKA The Dread Wolf) will see the future heroes of Thedas to the lands of blood magic and epic hairstyles: Tevinter. You can read more about our theories here.
Oooh what's this?
