We just recently saw on the EA Germany Twitter feed that Bioware and EA are testing a social network specifically for Bioware titles and fans. The network will have both general areas and networks specific to Bioware titles including Dragon Age Player, Builders and more. We anticipate that they’ll eventually branch out the subnetworks to include all of their titles but we don’t know their true plans as of yet.
It seems that this will be a major component of Bioware support for Dragon Age and the Dragon Age Toolset, which is in limited beta and is expected to launch shortly after the game. That puts it out sometime around end of November into 2010.
The site looks aimed not only at players and fans but directly at the modding community and even has built in social networking functions to help with that. You can list your proficiencies with 3D modeling, scripting, even writing and more. Then find projects that are looking for your specific expertise and hook up to help them out with their creations.
It’s a pretty cool thing actually and might even guarantee a massive upswell of user-generated content for the title once it’s launched. That could certainly extend the lifetime of the game as it has done for some others in the past.
What’s that? Stop yapping and give you the link already? Fine. For fans of Bioware, Dragon Age: Origins and more head to http://social.bioware.com and check it out today. See you there.
