Dragon Age<\/a><\/em>\u00a0fans have been waiting for the next game in the series for a long time. After the release of\u00a0Origins<\/em>,\u00a0Dragon Age\u00a02<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Inquisition<\/em>\u00a0released fairly quickly in comparison. But the most recent entry into the series was 2014’s\u00a0Dragon Age: Inquisition<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Despite the lack of content, fans of the franchise remain steadfast and hungry for more. Fans remain loyal\u00a0because of\u00a0the series’ history\u00a0of interesting characters, fantasy-world building, and fun RPG elements such as romanceable characters and choices that have consequences.<\/p>\n

There is no reason to fret though as many games have since released or existed before 2014’s Inquisition<\/em>.\u00a0Until Dragon Age 4<\/em><\/a> comes out, here are\u00a013 games to play\u00a0for fans of the\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em> series.<\/p>\n

Updated by Juliet Childers on November 16th, 2020:<\/strong> Bioware is set to release a Mass Effect remaster, but details on Dragon Age 4 remain slim. Fans have begun to look to other series to get their create-a-unique-protagonist fix. Baldur’s Gate 3<\/a>, one of the biggest competitors, is still in early access but shows tremendous promise and interest. However, fans can only play a smaller portion of the game right now to scratch the Dragon Age itch. What other games should Dragon Age fans play while they wait for Dragon Age 4’s release?<\/em><\/p>\n

13 <\/span>The Mass Effect Series<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Mass Effect<\/em><\/a> is the obvious first choice. It was made by the same company that made Dragon Age<\/em>, Bioware.\u00a0Players can create\u00a0their own protagonist who makes decisions with consequences that last throughout the game series.\u00a0As with\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em>, the player can also\u00a0form a party of interesting characters\u00a0to build relationships with.<\/p>\n

Many Dragon Age<\/em> fans call\u00a0this series “Dragon Age<\/em>, but in space”, so it is a natural place to start for players unfamiliar with the series. The trilogy is also getting a remaster to release in Spring 2021, so perhaps an\u00a0Origins<\/em> remaster won’t be far behind.<\/a><\/p>\n

12 <\/span>The Outer Worlds<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Fans of Mass Effect<\/em>\u00a0may have been disappointed with its most recent release Mass Effect: Andromeda<\/em><\/a>. Enter\u00a0The Outer Worlds<\/em><\/a>. While it is not a Bioware game, it is quite a character-driven game. Like Dragon Age<\/em>,\u00a0players collect companions and explore a well-written story. However, The Outer Worlds<\/em> is more like\u00a0a\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em> since it is a space adventure.<\/p>\n

Out of this game list, The Outer Worlds<\/em> is one of the newer titles. However, it does stick to the old style of dialogue choices like Dragon Age: Origins<\/em> did without a protagonist voice actor involved.<\/p>\n

11 <\/span>The Witcher 3<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

If\u00a0fans want to stick to a fantasy setting, then The Witcher 3<\/em><\/a> is a good choice. While\u00a0players do not get to create\u00a0a unique protagonist,\u00a0they still get to make choices that matter. This, of course, comes on top of exploring a dark fantasy world with interesting side characters and companions.<\/p>\n

The game is very large and can take a while for any completion-driven player. The first two games have aged quite a bit in comparison, but they may still be enjoyable.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

While this is one of the more aged games on the list, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic<\/em><\/a> stands out as a very memorable title.\u00a0One of the major indications of this\u00a0is all of the nearly perfect scores the game maintains. It was also made by Bioware, so its likeness to Dragon Age<\/em> is not unexpected. It was named by IGN as one of the best games of its decade, only beaten by Shadow of the Colossus<\/em><\/a> and Half-Life 2<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Players can\u00a0create their own characters and make choices within the world of Star Wars<\/em>. The game\u00a0is also known for having one of the greater twists in video game history.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Fable 2<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Fable<\/em> series is another older title, but one that many gamers remember. It has three games and they are very choice-driven\u00a0with Fable 2<\/em> <\/a>often regarded as the best in the series.\u00a0The release of its first game was in 2004 and there are rumors of a new title of the series on the horizon. Like Dragon Age<\/a>,<\/em> there are different fantasy races and monsters (though you have to play as a human).<\/p>\n

Fable 2<\/em> released in 2008 taking place 500 years after the first game’s events. What is unique about the game is how the character’s appearance morphs based on the decisions they make and the actions they take. Playing\u00a0Fable 2<\/em> on PC takes a bit of a workaround, but Xbox One owners can access it fairly easily with Microsoft Game Pass.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Fallout: New Vegas<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Most people who have played\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em>\u00a0have also played Bethesda games. While they are not as intimate with their characters as\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em>, the\u00a0Fallout<\/em>\u00a0series still offers memorable choices and a unique world. It may not be in a fantasy setting, but there are some pretty fantastical creatures and post-apocalyptic races such as ghouls and super mutants. But\u00a0Fallout: New Vegas<\/em><\/a> really puts the focus on how choices have consequences.<\/p>\n

Developed by Obsidian Entertainment,\u00a0New Vegas<\/em> veers from the typical setup of following a Vault dweller. Instead, people play as a courier in the American Southwest including Zion National Park in a DLC. Pro-tip: Obsidian also developed\u00a0The Outer Worlds<\/em>. The studio put a serious focus on player choice that culminated in one of four endings for the game.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Divinity: Original Sin I<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

This fantasy role-playing game was released in 2014 was received good reviews for its story, turn-based combat, and meaningful choices. Besides the turn-based combat, that sounds a\u00a0great deal like\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em>, but it does have one major difference. The player cannot create their own protagonist.<\/p>\n

Instead,\u00a0Divinity: Original Sin<\/a><\/em>\u00a0game follows a\u00a0customizable\u00a0pair of Source Hunters — those who hunt dangerous mages. Their journey in Rivellon starts in Cyseal but quickly becomes fantastical involving goblins, imps, an ancient goddess, a dragon king, and more.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Baldur’s Gate And Baldur’s Gate II<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Fans of the Dragon Age: Origins<\/em>\u00a0combat system will find\u00a0Baldur’s Gate<\/em><\/a> or its sequel to be fun options. The combat system is essentially the same, so that is important to know since fans either loved or hated the\u00a0Origins<\/em> combat system.\u00a0But, fans will also love to know that this, too, is a Bioware-made game.<\/p>\n

Players make a character similar to how\u00a0one is made in Dungeons and Dragons\u00a0<\/em>then start adventuring from there. They can\u00a0collect companions, quest to save the world, or just rob everyone instead.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Divinity: Original Sin II<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

This follow-up<\/a> to the 2014 game positively exploded in popularity. The game was crowd-funded, but saw massive Steam sales and continues to entice new players to its turn-based\u00a0D&D<\/em> style gameplay. Larian Studios, the developer, is currently working on their next big project:\u00a0Baldur’s Gate 3<\/em>.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0Divinity Original Sin 2: 7 Reasons To Stick To A Premade Character (& 7 To Make Your Own)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The game takes place well after the original game in a different region of Rivellon than Cyseal. Instead of following Source Hunters, the game follows individuals known as Sourcerers who also happen to be Godwoken. Woven into a complex tapestry of choices, the game offers up hundreds of unique choices to ensure a distinct playthrough every time. It also allows for up to four-person co-op and has a Dungeon Master mode.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Red Dead Redemption 2<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

This duo might not seem like a match, but when it comes to the essence of the game, it is. Though set in the Old West instead of a fantasy setting, the game still follows a single protagonist whose choices matter. While the player cannot create a unique character, they can change Arthur Morgan’s appearance and determine whether he makes good choices or is a total outlaw.<\/p>\n

But more than that, the world in\u00a0RDR2<\/a><\/em>\u00a0is sweeping, lush, and vibrant with hundreds of\u00a0NPCs who have their own stories<\/a>. The plot is just as engaging as that of a\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em>\u00a0game where players find themselves endeared and attached to these characters. The game is also insanely gorgeous and available on console and PC for increased accessibility.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Final Fantasy XII<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Often regarded as the “red-headed stepchild” of the\u00a0Final Fantasy<\/em> universe, 12 has garnered more positive attention lately. The game has also received PC, PS4, and Xbox One updates<\/a> along with a Nintendo Switch release. The Zodiac Age also shows how forward-thinking Square Enix was when developing this game in terms of its graphical capabilities.\u00a0But anyone who loved the\u00a0intrigue of “Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts” will love the political machinations on display in\u00a0Final Fantasy XII<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Don’t be fooled into thinking that Penelo and Vann are the main characters. The game is about imperialists, crystal magic, bloodlines, and Captain Bosch from Dalmasca.\u00a0There’s also the effortlessly cool airship-owning couple Balthier and Fran who might also be Ivalice influencers.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Elder Scrolls<\/em><\/a>\u00a0series is a little more similar to\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em><\/a>\u00a0than\u00a0Fallout<\/em>\u00a0because it is in a fantasy setting.\u00a0The series\u00a0features many great entries, but\u00a0Skyrim<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>consistently ranks very high on Metacritic<\/a>\u00a0and with fans.\u00a0The game\u00a0follows the Dovahkiin as they navigate a war-torn Tamriel beset by the Imperials and the Stormcloaks.<\/p>\n

Players can\u00a0choose\u00a0their\u00a0race, customize their characters, go on a ton of quests, and explore a huge fantasy world all while making choices along the way. One major difference between this and a\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em>\u00a0game, however, is that\u00a0Skyrim<\/em>\u00a0is not as linear. A player can spend a hundred hours in the game and not have progressed the main story at all.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Switching from a\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em> game to an\u00a0Assassin’s Creed<\/em><\/a> game would normally be like using chocolate milk instead of regular milk on cereal. But with\u00a0Odyssey<\/em><\/a>, the series debuted a very unique take on a series that used to be about stealth. Instead,\u00a0Odyssey<\/em> puts RPG elements at the forefront with combat that more resembles button-mashing than assassinating.\u00a0Though players cannot customize their protagonist, they can play as Alexios or Kassandra<\/a> and romance whomever they please.<\/p>\n

The game puts players in a beautifully recreated ancient Greece and lets them sail all around the Mediterranean. That’s something\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em> has not let its fans do yet: take to the seas to perhaps sail from the Storm Coast to Kirkwall or beyond. Fans can live vicariously through Kassandra and her crew in\u00a0Odyssey<\/em>. There are also numerous mythological beasts to face, as well.<\/p>\n
