Then we get, um, a little bit of Dragon Age news. Now, I'm gonna like, temper expectations immediately. Don't expect a lot. Do not expect.. um. Don't - I don't think there's gonna be like a trailer or gameplay or anything like that. Um, and really I'm not even sure of the reason why they're doing exactly this thing that they're doing. It seems a little bit weird. But, um, in about an hour and a half or so, uh, they should come out and say the name of the game. And I think that might be it. So, if you are - okay, I always do this thing where I'm like 'Oh, you know, who's gonna care about that', and then I remember BioWare fans exist, and how nuts they are, 'cause this happened with Mass Effect, where I was talking about Mass Effect: Legendary Edition, and I was like 'yeah that sounds cool, I love those games, I'll play those games again', and there were people who were just like showing up for the first time in my comments or whatever, or showing up on GamesBeat, or showing up in the YouTube comments and just losing their minds. Just the biggest fans in the world. And then uh, so really, I think, just dropping the name, some Dragon Age fans are going to be like 'OH MY GOD, this is amazing' but I think if you are expecting more than that, today might be a little disappointing. But yeah, seems like they're coming out with the name, seems like they have their reasons, again I don't fully understand why exactly we're going to get just this little thing and then move on, um, but I mean maybe it's just like they wanna keep, give fans a sign of life, say 'Dragon Age is still coming, Dragon Age 4 is still coming'.
Now, when is it coming, we've talked about it before on this show, if you're a regular viewer or regular listener, you know this already, nothing's changed there, if you're just tuning in, I know more people watch during the E3 timeframe. If you're wondering when it's gonna come, it's still not coming until at* least* the middle of next year, and then probably a little bit later, towards the end of next year, um, so we're at least a year away, at least, and then probably closer to still a year and a quarter, a year and a half off, like, you know, we're talking about the end of next year, something like that, so yeah, it's not coming out this year, it's not coming out at the end of this fiscal year. Do not expect it before basically June of next year, is the earliest. And then, really, are they gonna put it out in the summer? I doubt it. It's probably gonna come out closer to the fall.
But yeah, that's like the big news I can give you there. They're gonna give you many of these details. They'll probably, they probably won't say a timeframe, cause they haven't really been saying that much, except for they might say like, "oh Dragon Age: Blank", you know, the name is out there if you really want it, I've, we've teased it on Twitter a little bit. Credit to Tom Henderson who started doing this stuff, teasing this first this morning, if you really wanna know the name go check out his Twitter feed, he basically just said it, so. At least as far as I know. I guess, maybe they pulled a fast one on us, but that's my understanding, is, y'know, we'll get that name today. And yeah, that's it. So again, temper those expectations.

Revealing the title lets BioWare give something to the fans without devoting resources to a trailer, so it makes a lot of sense with the recent tweets.

I do think it’s also possible that they might show footage or trailers of the game later during the summer, at other events. It’ll also give the game, in this case, more visibility.
Of course, the State of Play or later today isn’t going to be one, as it’d be weird to not just announce the game there and have an update on the blog later.

I really hope that's not the title...that's very boring and easily could have been revealed back in 2020. Also would give us nothing new to speculate about.

Our Next Adventure — Dragon Age: Dreadwolf by Author - BioWare - Posted on June 2, 2022
Our next game now has an official name. We know you’ve anxiously awaited new details, and today we’re excited to reveal the official title of the next adventure across the lands of Thedas—Dragon Age: Dreadwolf™.
Who is the Dread Wolf? Solas, the Dread Wolf. Some say he might be an ancient elven god, but some say not. Others say a betrayer of his people…or a savior who now seeks to rescue them at the cost of your world. His motives are inscrutable and his methods sometimes questionable, earning him a reputation as something of a trickster deity—a player of dark and dangerous games.
Whether you’re new to Dragon Age™ stories or you’ve experienced them all, using Solas’s namesake no doubt suggests a spectrum of endless possibilities on where things may go. But at the core of this, like every past game, is you. If you’re new to Dragon Age, you have no need to worry about not having met our antagonist just yet. He’ll properly introduce himself when the time is right, but we did hint at his return when we announced #TheDreadWolfRises back in 2018.
More Dragon Age: Dreadwolf later this year We suspect you have questions and they’ll be answered in time. While the game won’t be releasing this year, we’re growing closer to that next adventure. Rest assured, Solas is placing his pieces on the board as we speak. That’s all we have for now, but we hope knowing the official title has sparked some intrigue, as we’ll be talking more about the game later this year!
Wow, they somehow managed to do even less than I suspected.
Based on what was said before, I was expecting that, unfortunately. It’d have been better if there was no ‘scoop’ on some new informations drops. The fact that the news was dropping the same day of the State of Play also made it unlikely they’d show something substantial.
Although, I don’t think it’d have been that problematic to release more information on the game in the blog.

I’m not even referring to that. The name is stupid, and the blog post is completely worthless nonsense.

While I wouldn’t say it like that, I do agree that the blog spot was basically useless. I guess they don’t want to reveal any informations on the plot/setting, events in place and protagonist, until the big reveal trailer comes up.
I’m indifferent on the title, although my reaction might’ve been similar to Inquisition’s, if we wouldn’t have already known that Solas was back. They’re kind of treating its return and central present in the game as a big reveal, which it isn’t.
I guess that kind of tends to indicate that there really isn't a bigger baddy in the wings than Solas
Hard to have a bigger bad than someone who wants to genocide all life.
Something good about the subtitle, is that it’s sort of clear that Solas will be central to the game, and not a bait and switch for another hidden villain.
I do hope, given how they’re hyping him up in his role, that he wouldn’t end up as a lackluster antagonist after a certain point, like Corypheus.
