Lot of great stuff coming out that year. Fall this year will be nice but 2015 is going to be crazy good for everybody.

Agent20093609d ago (Edited 3609d ago )

Agree, 2015 is going to be one of the most exciting years in the history of gaming. So many games, so little time...

Irishguy953609d ago

It's actually getting a bit ridiculous how many games are coming in 2015

Cluster****

JBSleek3609d ago

2015 will be on par with 1998 and 2007

Tetsujin3609d ago

The problem I have with all these games coming in 2015 is then a lot of companies are gonna push to 2016 for the fear of over saturation; however they will argue "polish" and other PR statements.

Mass Effect is one game I want in the future, however if Fallout did get announced I'd pick it over ME in 2015.

DOMination-3609d ago

Teaser at VGAs then with gameinformer cover in March and gameplay at next e3

If we go by history it could be at any time. The first game was initially released in mid November, the second game was first released in late January and the last game came out in March. Pretty crazy release history, huh?

F4sterTh4nFTL3609d ago

Now that there are multiple teams working on different BioWare games I expect a BioWare game releasing yearly around the same time of the year, most probably October/November.

2014 = Dragon Age: Inquisition
2015 = Mass Effect 4
2016 = New BioWare IP/Star Wars game

colonel1793609d ago

Most likely! If the game was to be ready for 2015, they would've shown something! At the very least, they probably will announce a date for 2015 and be delayed to 2015 like happened to many games this year.

OrangePowerz3609d ago

2015 sounds very optimistic given how little they showed at E3. They could have had at least a cinematic CGI Trailer.

djplonker3609d ago

Exactly what I thought when I seen the title

Mass effect 4

dragon age inquisition

unannounced new ip

They are keeping busy that's for sure!

starchild3609d ago

Maybe they don't want to show off games too early as has been common so often lately.

OrangePowerz3609d ago

If you expect to launch in 2015 you want to show a short CGI trailer at this years E3 given a tiny insight into the setting and the possible story to make people guessing what it is about. At the Vudeo Game Awards in December a longer trailer that gives a few more answers but also throws uo more questions and a gameplay reveal at next years E3. So basically you want 1 1/2 years of building up interest. What they should at E3 didn't built any interest at all for me because they didn't really show anything at all.

Given how poor the EA press event was, if they believed it comes in 2015 they would have showed something. Even if it comes in 2016 they could have needed to show something because their event wasn't good at all full of short prototype footage
Showing anything tangible would have made the event a lot better.

Blackleg-sanji3609d ago

Ok its clear that im gonna need to get a second job just for 2015 lol all these releases are crazy

LAWSON723609d ago

2015 seems unlikely we did not even get a CGI trailer at E3 let alone a plot reveal (besides that it is not a prequel).

randomass1713609d ago

Yeah, I got the same vibe. At best the game is still in its pre-production phase.

BioWare Could be Working on More than Just Dragon Age Dreadwolf and Mass Effect 4

Earlier this year, BioWare was hit with layoffs as part of a downsizing of parent company Electronic Arts, but fans have been reassured that the next Mass Effect game hasn’t been impacted. Likewise, Dragon Age: Dreadwolf’s development is still churning along, with BioWare putting it at the forefront of its focus and rumors suggesting that it could launch sometime later this year. Fans might be getting another look at the long-in-development Dragon Age: Dreadwolf at the Summer Game Fest in June.

If the recently posted job offering for a temporary development manager is any indication, BioWare could have yet another surprise up its sleeve for when Mass Effect 4 and Dragon Age: Dreadwolf are nearing completion. This mystery BioWare video game could truly be anything, from another spin-off of its two major properties to something entirely new. All there is to go on at the moment is a vague mention in the job posting, and it might still be some time before BioWare is ready to confirm any new games in its pipeline.

So a studio that spent years on anthem then this dragon age thing is now also working on another ip along with mass effect,

You think they would be worried that there brand has been on 3 major screw ups

Dragon age 3 launched broken with the frostbite engine yes its a good game but you can see in the late game how rough it was

anthem......

Mass effect 4 well that dev team was fired so yeah.....

They should make sure this new dragon age is a goat instead of putting more work on the table

bababooiy37d ago

Bioware today is like 150 poeple i dont see how they are seemingly working on all these projects at the same time.

Michiel198937d ago

Inquisition wasn't broken, it just had some flaws and on the contrary it also had some strengths. If you call inquisition a major screw up then idk what to say.

That said with what happened to the study since then and now, I'm not really confident that their next game will be any good.

just_looken37d ago

If you played it fully to get plat like me back in its novemeber launch window you had that castle with empty area's endgame missions not there or working and a mp that was made around loot box grind like the mass effect mp.

Its hard to explain to those that played it years later after they tossed out the dlc/patch's

Michiel198937d ago

entitled much? I played it at launch too. Why you even platted it if it was a "major screw up"?
It was good enough for you to sink 100 hours in but also a complete fuckup at the same time, make up your mind.
So either you like shitty games or you're just talking out of your ass.

RaidenBlack37d ago

Well just wanna say, Archetype Entertainment is the new BioWare, composed of mainly ex-BioWare vets.
And they're developing Exodus (starring Matthew McConaughey), a new sci-fi RPG (spiritual successor to Mass Effect, dare I say?)

CantThinkOfAUsername37d ago

I hope it's a single player game with Anthem's gameplay mechanics.

Becuzisaid37d ago

They're owned by EA. What makes you think that they wouldn't publish for PS5? Shoot, if your fridge could connect to your bank account EA would try to release it for that if they could!

Double_O_Revan38d ago

How about they focus on those games and not over extend themselves? We don't need another Anthem.

Becuzisaid37d ago

Bioware died after Inquisition (some would even argue after ME3). They are no longer the same company.

New Mass Effect Game Teased for N7 Day, and It Shows a Mysterious Individual

Today is known as Mass Effect N7 Day, and BioWare has released what looks to be teasers for the new Mass Effect game.

Snookies12184d ago (Edited 184d ago )

We really need another solid Mass Effect entry. It's a real shame that such a legendary franchise was left off with such a blemish to its overall astounding track record. Andromeda was just not it, don't know what they were thinking there.

-Foxtrot184d ago

Surprised it got a subtitle

I thought after Andromeda they’d have kept to the numbers so people wouldn’t think “oh another spin off”

Unless Shepard returns

Obscure_Observer183d ago

"Unless Shepard returns"

After ME3, Shepard should f* off

Stanjara183d ago

Put a chick in it and make her gay.

Ethereal183d ago

Yes! One of my all time favorite trilogies. Hopefully they do ME justice. Andromeda was passable and had bones of a good game but just lacked the depth and intrigue that the originals had.
