Dragon Age: Absolution Release Date, Cast, Plot, and More

In collaboration with Bioware, Netflix is developing an anime series based on the setting of the iconic video game franchise Dragon Age. Dragon Age: Absolution’s six episodes will be on Netflix in December 2022.

Dragon Age: Absolution is the franchise’s third animated series; following Warden’s Fall in 2010 and Redemption in 2011, it will be the most extensive Dragon Age animated series.

The show’s announcement comes as fans eagerly expect the next game in the series, Dragon Age: Dreadwolf. The future RPG has been in production for years and has made weird cameos at various gaming events; however, it has yet to appear on the E3 2022 schedule. Even the official title was released a few weeks ago.

When will Dragon Age: Absolution be available on Netflix?

Unfortunately, Netflix has not announced a specific release date for Dragon Age: Absolution. We can, however, affirm that the series will be released in December 2022.

We’ve heard the series is now aiming for a December 9th, 2022, Netflix premiere date.

The Cast 

The cast has yet to be disclosed, but we expect to learn more soon. While no characters have been identified, and we don’t know where the show takes place in the Dragon Age timeline, Netflix has revealed that it takes place in the Tevinter Imperium, which is also the location of the next game, Dragon Age: Dreadwolf.

Mairghread Scott, who has written for shows ranging from Guardians of the Galaxy to Star Wars Resistance, is the showrunner. Scott also writes for the forthcoming Magic: The Gathering program on Netflix.

Red Dog Culture House, a South Korean animation company that previously collaborated with Netflix on The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf and the Good Hunting episode of Love, Death & Robots, is producing the show.

The Plot

At the moment of writing, we know very little about Dragon Age: Absolution’s narrative, but we do know where it will take place.

For the first time ever in Dragon Age history, the Tevinter Imperium will appear on the screen. Many Dragon Age fans will be eager to visit the Tevinter Imperium for the first time because it has only been mentioned by name in video games.

According to Netflix, the series “features an ensemble of new characters inspired by Dragon Age history,” including “elves, magicians, knights, Qunari, Red Templars, demons, and other unique surprises.”

How many episodes are there in Dragon Age: Absolution?

The series will include six episodes, which have been announced. However, the durations and titles of the episodes have yet to be published.

Netflix has made a significant investment in gaming, with ventures such as The Cuphead Show bringing game IP to streaming TV series. It is also purchasing several formerly independent gaming firms to help construct a growing collection of playable titles that will be offered as part of the subscription.
