BioWare has released a new trailer for Dragon Age: Origins showing off the Mabari War Dog!
According to the developers:
“Dogs are an essential part of Ferelden culture, and no dog is more prized than the Mabari. The breed is as old as myth: Said to have been bred from the wolves who served the legendary hero, Dane. Prized for their intelligence and loyalty, these dogs are more than mere weapons or status symbols: The hounds choose their masters, and pair with them for life. To be the master of a Mabari anywhere in Ferelden is to be recognized instantly as a person of worth.”
Here is a video of the Mabari War Dog in action.
Dragon Age: Origins is the newest game from BioWare (creators of Mass Effect and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic) which will return the developers to their fantasy roots after they went sci-fi with Mass Effect. The game is in development for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. BioWare has stated that Dragon Age: Origins is the spiritual successor to the Baldur’s Gate series, although it is not based on Dungeons & Dragons.
