Dragon Age 4: 11 Things We Learned From The Behind The Scenes Gamescom Feature

10. The Wardens And Weisshaupt

Shots of a Warden fortress in snow and ice implies the involvement of Wardens from the fortress itself, Weisshaupt in the Anderfels. With how Wardens left off in the last game - with either Hawke or your given Warden contact talking of unrest in Weisshaupt until no new news comes to light - the Grey Wardens will absolutely play a big part in the fourth entry to the franchise.

In the video, not only do we see the Fortress, but we also get to hear lines from one voice actor, Ike Amadi, playing the character Davrin, who shouts "For the Wardens!" We also see what appears to be a Warden protecting a mother and child from fire, as well as the initial in-game effects of a character in Warden armour doing the Line In The Sand ability Blackwall had in Inquisition.

Wardens play a significant role in Tevinter Nights as well, featuring in "The Horror of Hormak" and "Hunger", where Wardens discover the horrible body horror experiments on Darkspawn and humans alike by ancient magic, and fight Werewolves to protect an overlooked town, respectively.

Here's hoping the surviving Wardens Ramesh, Evka Ivo and Antoine feature in the next game.
