Find out about the 24 hour launch event.
BioWare has announced that on Oct. 28th at 10:00 AM GMT, ten teams of four players will experience Dragon Age: Origins Warden's Quest. The ten teams will live, fight and explore the game as drama unfolds across a twenty four hour quest with the ultimate goal being to claim the grand prize – each member of the winning team will receive $12,500.
There will be ten participating teams representing their countries: the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Netherlands and Belgium, Spain, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Hungary, Poland and a specially selected team comprised of the most loyal BioWare fans from around the world. The competition will take place in the Debating Chamber at County Hall in London, England. This space will provide a grandiose setting for the competitors to play the game, discuss strategy and battle for the grand prize as teams are eliminated throughout the day. Around the chamber, screens will be used to display leader board stats and show highlights. BioWare staff and costumed actors will further enhance the environment, theatrics and dramatics of the day.
The contest will help BioWare usher in Dragon Age: Origins which is set to release on Nov. 3rd in North America on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. The game ships on Nov. 6th in Europe on the PC and Xbox 360 (and later on the PS3).
