Did you know Dragon Age Day was a thing, I had no idea either, but Bioware do love their days, so the result is something fun that the community can get behind.

This year, along with the news that we should hear more about the next Dragon Age game next week, strangely enough, that is when The Game Awards will take place, Bioware have released four new short stories from the world of Dragon Age.

They are The Next One, Ruins of Reality, The Wake and Minrathous Shadows, with a little info on each below and a link to ready them. Remember these are short stories and all four can easily be knocked out within 10 minutes, if you so choose.

The Next One

A Grey Warden stands his ground against the dark.

Ruins of Reality

Elves discover something has gone wrong in Arlathan Forest.

The Wake

Members of the Crows grieve the loss of a friend.

Minrathous Shadows

A high-stakes game of cards ends in a shocking revelation.

There is nothing that indicates those stories are from the upcoming game, so don’t feel like you might miss out if you don’t read it, for now just enjoy the stories and wait a week to see what happens next. If you want to see how others are celebrating the day, check out some amazing art and even more amazing cosplays on Twitter.
