About Dragon Age Inquisition
Dragon Age™ Inquisition – Game of the Year Edition casts you as the Inquisitor, charged with uniting a fractured Thedas while a demonic invasion looms. The game blends a choice‑driven story, a vast open world, and tactical combat, all supported by single‑player and multiplayer modes.
The edition bundles the base game with three major DLC packs—Jaws of Hakkon, The Descent, and Trespasser—adding new locations, quests, and gear. Full controller support, online co‑op, and Steam achievements round out the experience on Windows.
01 / THE GUIDE
Choice‑Driven Narrative
The Inquisitor’s decisions shape the political landscape of Thedas; each choice influences faction relations and can alter the world’s physical state, creating a personalized story path.
Consequences are tracked throughout the campaign, so later dialogues reference earlier actions, reinforcing the weight of each decision.
- Review faction standings before committing to a major decision.
- Recall earlier choices when new dialogue options appear.
02 / THE GUIDE
Open‑World Exploration
Thedas is presented as a wide‑open, detailed continent filled with enemy keeps, hidden caves, and roaming creatures, encouraging players to venture beyond the main storyline.
Exploring these areas uncovers secrets and resources that can affect combat readiness and story progression.
- Mark points of interest on the map before traveling.
- Search caves thoroughly for hidden loot.
03 / THE GUIDE
Strategic Combat
Combat offers an optional strategic view where time pauses, allowing precise placement of allies and enemies before the battle resumes.
Players may also fight in real‑time, moving freely and using abilities without pausing, catering to different play preferences.
- Use the pause mode to assess enemy formations.
- Combine ranged and melee units for balanced attacks.
04 / THE GUIDE
DLC Expansions
The Game of the Year edition includes the Jaws of Hakkon DLC, which adds a new mountain region, quests, and gear tied to a dragon hunt.
The Descent DLC introduces underground locations and earthquake‑related story content, while Trespasser DLC continues the narrative after the main campaign, presenting fresh threats and choices.
- Finish the main story before tackling DLC quests for smoother difficulty.
- Compare new gear stats from each DLC with your current loadout.
05 / THE GUIDE
Multiplayer Co‑op
Beyond the single‑player campaign, the title offers multiplayer and online co‑op modes where players team up for combat encounters separate from the main story.
Full controller support, Steam achievements, and Steam Trading Cards are included, enhancing the cooperative experience on Windows.
