BioWare hiring for Dragon Age 3

Though not exactly surprising, BioWare has (indirectly) confirmed that it's working on Dragon Age 3. A tweet from BioWare senior director of creative development Alistair McNally (via IGN) reads, "I'm looking for exceptional environment artists to join me at #BioWare Edmonton, Canada to work on #DragonAge3 #gamejobs #jobs #3D #artists."

Both EA and BioWare have put marketing and development muscle behind the Dragon Age franchise, pushing out two games and a large-scale expansion in under two years. This is the first we're hearing of the third game, so it's hard to tell if it will keep pace with its predecessors or settle on a longer development cycle. Either way, both of the main-series games have ended on cliffhangers, so maybe this title will wrap up some of the loose ends.
