New Screens and Area Update for Dragon Age: Origins

BioWare has updated the storyline and world information for their upcoming RPG, Dragon Age: Origins. Expected to land on the PC March 23, 2009 and the PS3 and Xbox 360 during September 2009, the folks over at BioWare have added some new content to the website, explaining the history and the inhabitants of Ferelden–a dark and foreboding place, where death and violence lurks in every shadow.

From the official website:

Civilization has fought for many centuries to hold the shadows at bay, but even now the mighty walls of Ostagar are beginning to crumble against the onslaught of an ancient threat. The darkspawn have returned again to bring their taint to the land, and this time, their ancient adversary, the Grey Wardens, have been left neglected by a complacent world that felt they no longer needed them. The fate of the world hangs in the balance, as these mighty warriors again take their place on the front lines against the Blight. But powerful as they are, their numbers have dwindled, and the time is near that a champion needs to step forward from their ranks and lead them to victory. But will the success of this Grey Warden ensure a new, brighter future for Ferelden, or be the first bloody step into a more perilous future?

BioWare also sent over three new screens from the game, which feature areas in Ferelden. You can also check out many more screens and other forms of media by visiting the Dragon Age: Origins page on FileFront.
