BioWare has announced that it will be releasing its latest downloadable content (DLC) to its award-winning action RPG gaming title, Dragon Age: Inquisition. The DLC titled Jaws of Hakkon will be available for download on 24 March 2015.
This is the first DLC pack that is being released for Dragon Age: Inquisition, but it will be initially released only on Xbox One and PC. Players on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and Xbox 360 have to wait for some more time due to the deal between EA and Microsoft.
According to Xbox Live Marketplace, the Jaws of Hakkon DLC weighs 1.5GB and costs $14.99. "Discover the fate of the last Inquisitor and the powerful dragon he hunted. Enter an overgrown wilderness filled with Avvar, fiercely independent hunters who settled in the southern mountains of Thedas..." reads the game description.
Information on the DLC is shrouded in mystery but we have gathered that this DLC will be inclusive of new armour types, weapons, enemies and a new region called Hakkon.
Examiner goes on to explain that Hakkon Wintersbreath is one among the three primary Avvar gods who has been nicknamed as Lord of Winter. He is a Poseidon-type deity, who is important, but not a person who controls. He is a war god to the Avvar and he is the master of "frost and steel."
