Dragon Age: Inquisition Was Originally a Multiplayer-Only Game

Dragon Age: Inquisition, BioWare's highly anticipated upcoming action role-playing game, was originally going to be a multiplayer-only game, the developer revealed.

In an interview with GamesIndustry, executive producer Mark Darrah explained:

Weirdly we actually had a project code-named Blackfoot which was the first game we had that was looking at Frostbite. It was a Dragon Age game, multiplayer only, that was in development before Dragon Age II came out. That became the core of what became Dragon Age: Inquisition, the techlines, more than any of the development, so we've actually been looking at this a long time.

Oddly enough, Inquisition won't feature multiplayer in its campaign after all, as BioWare has deemed it's not quite the right time to add it to the series. Would you like to see the franchise eventually head in that direction? A Dragon Age MMO perhaps?
