Not that it should come as a surprise, but it appears Dragon Age III: Inquisition is actually in development for the still-unannounced next-generation consoles from Sony and Microsoft.

Internet sleuth Superannuation spotted a LinkedIn profile of EA Shanghai level designer Tao Gu that stated, "Scope of the DAIII has been chaged [sic], which will target next gen platform [sic] and will be postpone [sic] to 2014."

EA officially announced the game in September 2012 for unknown platforms. It's scheduled to launch in late 2013.

    Well I'm actually kinda glad it is. This just means it has an even greater potential.

    I kinda hope that they release it on PC first at least... this wait for a decent Dragon Age game is killing me!

    Not necessarily a big surprise, I guess--though I think, financially, it'd fare better as a big closing title for this generation. This will be a huge game with a small potential audience in 2014.

    Granted, that's the risk every developer runs with new consoles.

    Yes!! I hope they push the limits with DA3.

    We all knew they existed, but this is the first game we know of for the 8th gen, right?

    hopefully it'll feature real time combat in an open world.

    Noooo! Are you kidding me?! How are we supposed to transfer our save data from the last two games?

    Well, that's neat. I wonder if the next Mass Effect game will also be next-gen, given that it probably won't be directly connected to the other games.

    2014? Crap. I hate waiting. Hope this means it'll be really good then.

    So that means that the new consoles are most likely coming by the end of next year, yes? Although, I'd expect it to be delayed at least once. Still, I don't want to hear anything about this game - no concept art, none of that. Just give me something that proves you care.

    im hoping that this means next gen consoles wont be releasing till 2014. Mostly because there is almost no way i will have money for a new 400+ dollar system and games for said system before then.

    After the huge step backwards that Dragon Age II took. I don't really care what 'gen' it is. I have no intentions on buying it. Bioware is poison for game releases now, yet another integrated company within EA.

    does that mean the consoles will be unveiled at the next E3? Granted we all knew they were drawing nearer

    Launch title? Even if it isn't, hopefully it doesn't end up as buggy as Oblivion.

    So it's coming to Wii U without the first two just like mass effect?

    changed scope sounds almost like it'll be more like dao and less like da2 ... or maybe just better textures, we'll see.
