Dragon Age 4 was first announced at The Game Awards 2018, but details on what it will entail have remained scarce since then. Dragon Age fans have been treated to a teaser trailer here and there, but they haven't gotten a proper look at the gameplay or even many concrete story details. However, there's a chance that will change sooner rather than later, as the next game in the Dragon Age franchise could very well be featured at the EA Play event on July 22.
Twitter account PlayStation Game Size has discovered evidence that EA is going to release a Dragon Age 4 alpha test of some kind on the PlayStation Store in July, prior to the EA Play event taking place (though this evidence was apparently not in the form of it appearing in the database). As pointed out by GamesRadar, this doesn't mean that it will actually be playable for the public. It's possible it could be a press-only thing, or alternatively, it could be something else related to Dragon Age 4 instead of an alpha test, so fans should keep that in mind as well.
It's unclear what exactly Dragon Age 4 is going to have go live next month, but this does seem to be a strong indication that the game will be at EA Play on July 22. Usually taking place during E3 week, EA Play is typically EA's big event where it showcases its upcoming games, and Dragon Age 4 would certainly fit the bill as one of the company's most significant upcoming titles.
If Dragon Age 4 does make an appearance at EA Play as expected, it will be interesting to see if it finally shows gameplay or if it gets another story trailer. The "alpha" implication of this leak does suggest that we could be seeing Dragon Age 4 gameplay of some kind at EA Play, but fans may want to keep their expectations in check for now. It's perhaps more likely that they will instead get another trailer featuring Solas the Dread Wolf or one that expands more on red lyrium's role in Dragon Age 4.
Dragon Age 4 isn't the only big game "leaked" for the EA Play event on July 22. There are also rumblings that EA Motive is set to announce a new game based on one of the company's established IPs. Rumor has it that the IP in question is none other than the dormant Dead Space franchise, with a Dead Space revival game set to be announced at EA Play. Whether or not there's any truth to these rumors remains to be seen, but fans won't have to wait much longer to find out.
Dragon Age 4 is in development for unspecified platforms.
