The developer of the Dragon Age series, BioWare, is a Canadian electronic entertainment company founded in February 1995 by Dr. Ray Muzyka, Dr. Greg Zeschuk, and Dr. Augustine Yip in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. BioWare was acquired by EA Games in 2007.
BioWare specializes in creating computer and console video games and has become famous for highly praised and successful computer role-playing games such as the award-winning Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights.
