Today, Netflix and BioWare announced a new collaboration to bringĀ Dragon AgeĀ to the streaming platform.Ā Dragon Age: AbsolutionĀ is a new series set in the world of Thedas, arriving this December on Netflix.

Shown off during today’s Netflix Geeked stream, Dragon Age: AbsolutionĀ is a six-episode series. It’ll follow a set of new characters from the world ofĀ Dragon Age. That includes elves, Qunari, mages, knights, and some other surprises.

Dragon Age: AbsolutionĀ is set in Tevinter, which has some interesting implications. Plus, with the next Dragon AgeĀ game also heading Tevinter, the Netflix series could potentially set up storylines. Or it might just be a good entry point for newcomers. Either way, Tevinter is definitely an interesting place to go; it’s a region full of magic, mystery, and intrigue.

The Dread Wolf nears

As for theĀ Dragon Age series in the gaming realm, BioWare recently announced the title for its next entry. Dragon Age: Dreadwolf will be the next mainline game, with the player heading to Tevinter and dealing with a lingering threat in Solas.

The latestĀ Dragon AgeĀ has been in development for a while, and BioWare has confirmed it won’t launch in 2022. Basically, it’s going to be a while before we get a new virtual adventure in Thedas. In the meantime, this streaming series will be something for fans to dig into and pick apart, at the least.

Dragon Age: AbsolutionĀ is another step of Netflix diving deeper into the world of video game adaptations, too. A newĀ CyberpunkĀ anime was already announced, and its live-actionĀ Resident EvilĀ adaptation arrives soon. Today’s stream also had news about Netflix’sĀ TekkenĀ series,Ā The Cuphead Show, and the next book ofĀ Dota: Dragon’s Blood. And now, the streaming service will break into the fantasy world of Thedas.
