Game publisher Electronic Arts (EA) has officially made a double-dip offer to gamers who both own current and next generation gaming consoles within the same console family for the first ever DLC of the open-world epic video game “Dragon Age: Inquisition.”
The “Dragon Age: Inquisition” DLC is officially titled “Jaws of Hakkon.” It was officially released by EA on the Xbox One and the PC in March this year before rolling out to the PlayStation 4, the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 early this week, reports Gamespot.
“Jaws of Hakkon” is the first paid DLC pack for “Dragon Age: Inquisition.” EA has previously released a free single-player and multiplayer DLC packs called “The Black Emporium” and “Dragonslayer.”
EA’s double-dip offer means that it is providing cross-buy support for the DLC of the video game. That is, if gamers decide to purchase “Jaws of Hakkon” on Xbox 360 or the PlayStation 3, they will also be getting the DLC for free on the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, respectively.
The offer’s restriction works within the same console family only. So if they decide to upgrade from Xbox 360 to Xbox One or from PlayStation 3 to PlayStation 4, the “Dragon Age: Inquisition” DLC won’t need to be repurchased. But the core game should be bought and installed on both consoles.
The cross-buy support offer for the “Dragon Age: Inquisition” DLC is actually game developer BioWare’s response to fans and gamers of its epic video game.
Best role-playing game of 2014
“Dragon Age: Inquisition” is regarded as the best role-playing video game for 2014. In a report early this year, game critics believe that the video game developed by BioWare is a hands-down winner because of its massive adventure, masterful storytelling, rich and vibrant fantasy worlds, and superb animation.
The report added that “Dragon Age: Inquisition” has certainly raised the bar of role-playing game excellence to new levels in the gaming industry.
The game is the third installment to the very successful Dragon Age franchise, coming in as sequel to “Dragon Age: Origins” and “Dragon Age II.”
Prior to its official roll out in November 18 last year, the video game is one of the most anticipated by gamers and enthusiasts the world over.
An official gameplay trailer was launched the day before the game was released and many gamers and reviewers alike dubbed it as the most epic video game launch trailer ever, with the aesthetics equalled only by “Games of Thrones.”
Overwhelming and breath-taking
“Dragon Age: Inquisition” is an open-world epic so the physical space that players have to explore during gameplay is quite overwhelming and breath-taking as well.
With the vast environment that players can traverse and the rich background stories of every place in the adventure, the in-game world is quite big. What’s more, all these settings have bearings in the world’s current events so there are also political overtures that BioWare incorporated to the premise of the game.
Every setting is a visual marvel as well, a sight to behold for gamers. From snow-covered hills, sea-soaked shores, mountainous terrains, rural plains, to vast deserts, the locations are all quite the spectacle.
