9''Dragon Age: Dreadwolf'' is the upcoming fourth installment of the ''Franchise/DragonAge'' video game series by Creator/BioWare. Set [[TimeSkip roughly eight years after]] the end of ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'', it follows a new protagonist as they attempt to thwart the machinations of the Dread Wolf Solas, who plans to tear down the Veil separating the material world from the spirit world known as the Fade, to potentially catastrophic consequences. Promotional materials thus far indicate that the main action will be in the hereto-largely-unexplored northern countries of Thedas, including Rivain, the Anderfels, Tevinter, and Antiva.

11Like its predecessor ''Inquisition'', ''Dreadwolf'' is hosted on [[Creator/ElectronicArts EA's]] Frostbite engine. The game's release date is still unknown, but a full reveal is scheduled for summer 2024.

13!!''Dragon Age: Dreadwolf'' contains the following tropes:
14* AntagonistTitle: Solas, [[FaceHeelTurn who was a party member in the last game]], is the main antagonist here. "Dread Wolf," or ''Fen'Harel'' in Elvhen, is his NomDeGuerre.
15* FromNobodyToNightmare: The player character will be an unknown commoner who rises to meet [[PhysicalGod Solas]] face-to-face.
16-->'''Solas:''' They called me "Dread Wolf." What will they call ''you'' when this is over?
17* LateArrivalSpoiler: Marketing for the game has heavily emphasized Solas' identity as the Dread Wolf, his antagonistic role, and his plans to sunder the Veil, which would all be massive spoilers to anyone who hasn't completed ''Inquisition'' (where Solas is a companion and keeps his identity secret, only revealed in TheStinger).
18* MultinationalTeam: According to teasers and promotional materials, companions and party members will be sourced from many different places in northern Thedas.
19* TimeSkip: Strongly implied by the short story ''[[https://www.ea.com/games/dragon-age/news/the-eternal-flame The Flame Eternal]]'' to take place in 9:52 Dragon[[labelnote:note]]The events of this story took place in 9:22 Dragon, which is explicitly noted as having been thirty years ago[[/labelnote]], 8 years after the end of ''Trespasser'' (the last DLC campaign for ''Inquisition'').
20* TheUnchosenOne: In one trailer, Varric Tethras says that there's nothing inherently special about the player character -- "no magic hand, no ancient prophecy."
