Several veteran Dragon Age staff, including Laidlaw, left the company in response to Joplin's cancellation in 2017. The project has been marked by a high turnover of leading staff. According to Bloomberg News, after the success of the single-player game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and the decision to cancel the reworking of the massively multiplayer online Anthem in February 2021 following its lackluster launch, EA and BioWare decided to remove the planned multiplayer components from "Morrison" and to develop it as a single-player game only. ĭevelopment of the game was restarted under the code-name "Morrison" in 2018, this time with a live-service component and based on Anthem 's code. In October 2017, BioWare and its parent company Electronic Arts cancelled "Joplin" altogether, reportedly because it had no room for a " live service" component to provide ongoing monetization opportunities. This included putting "Joplin" on hold in late 2016 with development resuming in March 2017 after Andromeda shipped. Problems with the development of BioWare's other games Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem led to repeated interruptions as "Joplin" staff was shifted to these games. It was intended to be a smaller, more narrative-focused game set in the Tevinter Imperium region of the game's world setting, Thedas.
The development of the fourth main entry in the Dragon Age series, code-named "Joplin", began in 2015 with Mike Laidlaw as its creative director. A release date has not yet been announced.
The game's development, which began in 2015, has been marked by lengthy delays, several fundamental changes in design and high staff turnover.
The fourth major game in the Dragon Age franchise, Dreadwolf will be the sequel to Dragon Age: Inquisition (2014). Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is an upcoming role-playing video game being developed by BioWare and to be published by Electronic Arts.
