Video game characters are some of the most popular cosplay models. Unsurprisingly, many employees at game developer BioWare also love to cosplay. Those employees decided to make it easier for cosplayers to replicate the appearance of the characters in their upcoming RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition by releasing what they call Character Kits.

The Character Kits contain information such as specific colors, materials and the fashion sense of characters. The first kit is for Dragon Age mainstay Morrigan.

This should make it much easier for cosplayers and other craftsmen – bakers, illustrators, etc. – to emulate the costumes.

Dress up as a browser and head to the BioWare Blog to download the Morrigan Character Kit. Be sure to check back from time to time to grab the others when they’re released.

The folks over at BioWare have just unveiled the Sovereign replica statue, where it will be accompanied by a $350 price point, offering the baddies of the Mass Effect to receive some attention from the masses. Let us backtrack for a little bit – the Sovereign happens to be the Reaper that started everything right from the very beginning, where it measures in at 18.5″ and is most probably made out of some sort of plastic.

$350 sure sounds like a whole lot of money to spend for a replica statue, but one should never underestimate just what kind of fervency that a fan has when it comes to acquiring anything and everything that has to do with one’s favorite game. What makes the Sovereign replica statue special is the fact that it will also be accompanied by a code which will unlock something on BioWare Social.

It is best described this way, “Sized at an astounding 18.5″ tall, Sovereign is the flagship of the rogue Spectre Saren Arterius. An enormous, sentient dreadnought larger than any ship in any known fleet, Sovereign’s original construction hints at a mysterious and alien origin.” There will only be a thousand of these puppies rolling off the production line, so do expect these to sell out pretty fast.

BioWare and LucasArts have announced that a new update for Star Wars: The Old Republic is coming next month. Game update 2.4: The Dread War will land on October 1 and bring with it new gameplay features. The developers behind the game say that it continues to grow since it went free to play last […]

BioWare’s Star Wars: The Old Republic got off to a pretty good start, but unfortunately over time they started to lose players and eventually dropped the subscription model in favor of going free-to-play. However this seemed a bit unfair to gamers who have been loyally paying for the service and BioWare announced that they would be rewarding their subscribers to show their appreciation for their loyalty to the game. The first wave of rewards were handed out in the form of Cartel Coins, and a second round of rewards was supposed to be given as well, but it looks like that will no longer be happening.

This was confirmed by Eric Musco, the Community Manager of Star Wars: The Old Republic , whose statement revealed that the reason behind the cancellation of the reward was because of technical hurdles in which they will not be able to deliver on their promise. The “tech hurdles” were not specified but either way SWTOR players will not be receiving any rewards in the near future. The good news is that BioWare are looking at other ways in which they can reward their players, although when exactly will this reward be given out remains to be seen.

The iPad is no stranger to nostalgia-filled gaming sessions, and today Apple’s platform is welcoming yet another popular OG title into its hefty ranks. More specifically, we’re referring to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, a game which will surely bring a great deal of excitement to those who were avid fans of the original BioWare RPG back in the day. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is up for grabs now, but be prepared to pay a slight premium for it, since the near-2GB App Store download costs a cool 10 bucks. But hey, not too bad if you’d like to use an iPad to show your custom-made character what life was like before the Galactic Empire even existed.
