Mike Laidlaw drops it on Twitter.

The BioWare saga may have frozen, and now all the attention has focused on Anthem, but BioWare has not forgotten about Dragon Age: in fact, they seem to have long-term plans for the franchise.

Dragon Age boss Mike Laidlaw has assured a fan on Twitter that the team already has ideas for a Dragon Age 5 “theory.”

“There is no end planned for DA,” Laidlaw wrote. “There’s an evolving plan that’s meant to span two games or something.”

“So I can tell you what there could be in a theoretical fifth game,” Laidlaw went on, “if we were theoretically going to make room.”

BioWare and EA have yet to announce Dragon Age 4 (which will have a more bombastic name when it is announced, probably), although it is an open secret that the main team of Dragon Age has been working on the new release for some time.

However BioWare has all its resources focused on its next big IP, Anthem, and considering that it will go on sale next year does not look like we are going to see a new Dragon Age until 2019.

That means plans can change, and new ideas can emerge. “I definitely think if you try to stick to a plan that has a decade, by the time you reach the end you are wasting opportunities,” concluded Laidlaw.
