Bioware has announced that Dragon Age: Inquisition, the fantastic third entry into the legendary RPG game series, is getting its third patch soon: first on PC, and then later on consoles.
Based on player feedback, the folks at Bioware have fixed a number of issues, ranging from various personal quest bugs to multiplayer balance. They’ve even added a few requested features, including a keybinding for walking on PC and the ability to voice chat at the end of a multiplayer session while at the summary screen.
There’s still no firm release date for the update, but we expect it to arrive within the next few weeks. Take a gander below for the full (and rather long) detailed list of what this patch will bring.
