Overview

• BioWare pitched a remaster of Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age 2, and Inquisition following the positive reception of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition
• Mark Darrah said EA has historically opposed remasters and declined to provide new funding for the Dragon Age project
• The trilogy’s use of multiple legacy engines makes it significantly harder to update than Mass Effect’s single Unreal Engine codebase
• BioWare explored using Frostbite development tools and hiring external mod houses to carry out the remaster work
• As of August 10, 2025, no Dragon Age remaster has been greenlit or funded, leaving the trilogy’s modernization stalled indefinitely
