On Saturday, see the very best of BioWare merch with a fashion show featuring Mass Effect and Dragon Age swag. From hoodies to hats, we’ve got something for everyone.

Most importantly, don’t forget to come to our main stage panel on Saturday, where we’ll give you a special sneak peek of what’s to come in the Dragon Age universe.


They will be sending out live updates via the following, so stay tuned: Twitter Instagram Snapchat.
