Dragon Age Inquisition was a special game for the franchise as it was the first one that brought multiplayer to the series. While not all players were fans of it, it definitely provided something unique. If you are wondering about what is about to come next you should know that it is very likely to see multiplayer once again in Dragon Age 4.

The clue that gave it away is the fact that BioWare is looking for developers that have experience with multiplayer and the jobs are for the Dragon Age 4 project. The job listing offered us all of the details that we could need. Here is what the listing says:

The job listing was posted by Kevin Loken who is the technical director at Electronic Arts. It is safe to say that Dragon Age 4 will come use multiplayer once again. The fact that EA is looking for developers with experience is a good thing, and it means that they want to make sure that players will get the best possible experience.
While we don’t know much about what Dragon Age 4 will bring, this is an important clue. It remains to see if multiplayer will be implemented in the same way as in Dragon Age Inquisition, or there will be a twist to it.
