Here’s an official description of the content:
“The Exiled Prince” introduces the noble archer Sebastian Vael, with players joining him in the middle of his quest to avenge the brutal murder of his family. Sworn to the priesthood as a boy, Sebastian is forced to re-enter the viper’s nest of princely politics when his family is brutally murdered, leaving him as the sole surviving heir. Banding together with Sebastian and his unshakable loyalty and excellent aim, players will choose to either avenge Sebastian’s murdered family to reclaim his title or direct his holy vengeance on their enemies in Kirkwall. In addition to this action-packed storyline, players will also be able to enlist Sebastian as a follower throughout a majority of Dragon Age II.
“Our goal for the Dragon Age II DLC is to extend Hawke’s journey and the Dragon Age universe by introducing additional characters with meaningful storylines and intense, dynamic missions,” said Mark Darrah, Executive Producer of Dragon Age II. “Not only will ’The Exiled Prince’ allow players to experience Sebastian’s powerful revenge story, but they will also be able to utilize him as a follower throughout Hawke’s rise to power in Dragon Age II.”
Dragon Age II will be available on 360, PS3, and PC in North America on March 8, 2011 and in Europe on March 11, 2011.
Sounds good, I’ve already pre-ordered the Signature Edition a few months ago. It’s good that they release it for people who don’t pre-order it aswell.
Of course… there will always be some people that point out how evil it is to have day-one-dlc.
Doesn’t bother me… since I’m getting it for free anyway.
I think the real problem here is that alot of people might miss this information.
I don’t have a problem with having to preorder the game in order to get something free but with having to preorder it 2 months befor the game is out.
I use to preorder games maybe two weeks befor release and not two months.
The good news is that it doesn’t matter where you preorder the game. As far as I know anywhere is fine and thats something to salut.
It’s always good to see BioWare giving out alot of content for their games, but this right here is something they should know is the wrong way to do it. You don’t announce DLC before the game is even out. Whats the point of that? Won’t the game have enough content to last for days/weeks before it people are in need of more?
Luchy, even worse is, that this content could be on the full game as we see with the pre-order option. So it was not made after finishing the game which was already pressed.
People today are only slaves which buy it anyway. The industry can make with them what it wants. Buy the ultimate edition, then you will get the full game for the right price or even for a platinum price, like the first part shows it.
