Don’t hold your breath for remasters of the original Dragon Age trilogy – they’re pretty much impossible, BioWare’s former Dragon Age boss has said.
In an interview with FRVR, ex-Dragon Age series producer Mark Darrah was asked about the chances of a remastered collection of the first three Dragon Age games, similar to the Mass Effect collection. He noted that while he had previously envisioned a “Champion’s Trilogy” that would attempt to unify all three games (since they’re quite different from each other), he doesn’t think it’s likely anymore.
Why? Because no one currently at BioWare understands the engine those games were built on, and as a result, it also can’t be outsourced because all that institutional knowledge is gone.
“There is basically no one at BioWare anymore that understands the Aurora Engine,” Darrah claimed. “There’s basically no one outside of BioWare anymore that understands the Aurora engine. So unlike Mass Effect, which is Unreal… there are basically no companies that could help you.”
Dragon Age began life in 2009 with the much-loved Dragon Age: Origins, and was quickly followed-up by Dragon Age 2 just two years later. The hugely successful Dragon Age: Inquisition came out
