BioWare has tried some successful extensions in the social space in Dragon Age: Legends and some not so successful in the mobile space, like Mass Effect: Galaxy. However, just because they labeled their mobile title a “big mistake” doesn’t mean they won’t try again.
“We’re doing more stuff. EA as a whole is doing more mobile games, and at BioWare we’re looking at mobile extensions for our franchises as well,” revealed BioWare’s Ray Muzyka.
“One thing we’ve learned is that you need to lead with gameplay – making sure the core gameplay is really tight,” said BioWare founder Greg Zeschuk. “And another thing is just understanding the platform well enough that you really are state of the art in terms of what you’re delivering relative to what’s there. And sometimes it’s just experimental too, and on mobile with something of that scale it’s actually a lot safer to explore ideas.”
