Dragon Age: Inquisition multiplayer

Dragon Age: Inquisition features a four player co-op multiplayer mode. This marks the first time that a multiplayer mode has been included in a Dragon Age game. Players will take on the role of a member of the Inquisition. At the beginning of each mission one of the Inquisitor's advisors will instruct the player on their objectives. The multiplayer mode will have no impact on the single player game and there will be no exclusive multiplayer achievements. There will also be no subscription or premium services. However, you can purchase Platinum, which is described as a "time saver" currency.

Development
To create the multiplayer game for Inquisition, a dedicated team comprised of developers from both the Dragon Age and Mass Effect franchises was formed. The development time has been over two years.

Gameplay
At launch there will be three multiplayer campaigns. Maps will be randomly generated and BioWare expects the matches will last between 20-30 minutes.

The campaigns available at launch will be; Elven Ruins, Orlesian Chateau and the Tevinter ruins. There are three difficulties in multiplayer mode: Routine, Threatening and Perilous.

There will be a level cap of 20 for characters in the multiplayer. Once this is reached your character can be promoted. This will provide an extra attribute point (Warriors: +1 Constitution, Rogues: +1 Cunning, Mages: +1 Willpower) and provide Prestige points.

New characters can be unlocked by crafting their armour. Armour can be crafted, purchased, or found.

Challenges
When the multiplayer mode is launched, there will be a full challenge system in place. Completing these challenges will earn the player a reward. In addition, there will be new weekly operations. Completing the challenges will earn the player Prestige points which will contribute to the players rank on the leader board. There will also be banners, portraits and titles available to be unlocked through the challenge system.
