BioWare's Final Years Get the Documentary Treatment

A new documentary will look back at the final two years of BioWare, the studio behind Mass Effect and Dragon Age. The film is built on footage recorded during that stretch, so it is meant to show the period as it happened rather than only as memory.

BioWare has been through a hard run in recent years, including layoffs and restructuring under parent company Electronic Arts. Those changes shaped what many fans now see as the end of an era for a studio that defined a generation of role-playing games. Having a record of its last years on film gives that story a firsthand account.

The announcement is short on specifics. Release timing, distribution and the full creative team have not been detailed in the information available so far, so the scope of the film is still unclear. Fans who want to know more will need to wait for a fuller rollout.
