BioWare considered paying a team to "do a remake" of Dragon Age: Origins, former executive producer reveals, and "there were lots of pitches" around upgrading the old RPG

Dragon Age: Origins is getting pretty old – the RPG will be 16 years old this November – but according to a former BioWare executive producer, "there were lots of pitches" surrounding a potential modern upgrade for the game, including the idea of a remake, that never came to be.

Speaking in an interview with YouTube creator MrMattyPlays (below), Darrah explained that the team once "pretty softly" pitched the idea of turning the first three Dragon Age games into a Mass Effect Legendary Edition-style trilogy, to "probably remaster" and re-release them. After noting that EA has "historically been, and I don't really know why but they've even said this publicly, kind of against remasters," the former executive producer goes on to talk about a potential Dragon Age: Origins remake.
