BioWare has just announced that Funimation (The Animation company behind Full Metal Alchemist, Dessert Punk, and Afro Samurai) will be working on a full length Animated feature based off of Dragon Age 2
The movie, titled ‘Dawn of the Seeker’, will be an origin story for Cassandra Pentaghast, the character who interrogates Varric and sets up each chapter of the storyline in Dragon Age 2. Dawn of the Seeker follows Cassandra as she investigates a conspiracy in the Chantry and becomes the titular Seeker. The story will feature popular locations such as Orlais and Kirkwall, and is set to release in March 2012.
Now I am assuming that this is part of EA’s strategy of giving their AAA titles some pretty awesome animated movies, like they did with Dead Space and Dante’s Inferno, which were spectacular animated shorts that really set you up for the games.
