Dragon Age 2 Announced

Today BioWare announced a sequel to Dragon Age: Origins, titled Dragon Age 2. They've opened an official site for the game, which shares some vague details and concept art, and promises a trailer in mid-August. The story will apparently span an entire decade and involve a new hero, but it will be located in the same world as the original game. The site says there will be "dynamic new combat mechanics," though the same three basic classes will be available. More information should be forthcoming in this month's issue of Game Informer.

I can't freakin' wait, man.

I sunk 70+ hours into my first game (female Dwarf Noble) did as many side missions as I could find) and put about 40+ hours into my second game (female City Elf). Dragon Age's world really felt alive, and I felt like I was having a direct impact ont he way things were going.

I don't usually like to gush on about a game, but even with its flaws (slightly wonky camera, some textures looked like they were from the N64 era while other textures looked very realistic, etc) Dragon Age deserves every bit of attention and praise it gets. Truly great storytelling, and truly engaging gameplay.
