EA has announced that Dragon Age 2 will be released in the US on March 8, while the UK and the rest of Europe gets it on March 11th.

Dragon Age 2 thrusts players into the role of Hawke, a penniless refugee who rises to power to become the single most important character in the world of Dragon Age. Known to be a survivor of the Blight and the Champion of Kirkwall, the legend around Hawke's rise to power is shrouded in myth and rumor. Featuring an all-new story spanning 10 years, players will help tell that tale by making tough moral choices, gathering the deadliest of allies, amassing fame and fortune, and sealing their place in history.

The first trailer for Dragon Age 2 was shown at EA's Press Conference, we'll hopefully have that up soon on Strategy Informer.

The cinematic debut trailer was quite awesome, I wasn't sure what I wanted more, a cinematic video, or gameplay footage to quell my fears about the 'change of style' for the games graphics.

Anyway, the trailer was really good, hopefully we'll see some gameplay from the rest of GamesCom, or over the next few months, I'm really interested what they've done with the visuals. I'm hoping they've not changed it to the point, where it no longer feels like the same Dragon Age world.

It surely is great. I hope that the gameplay trailer reveals something really special. I know that DAO had sort of stiff gameplay, the characters were looking more like characters in an RTS game. And I wanted it to feel more like a TPS. :D
I hope this game will be even better, even tough I liked the first :)

I hope the story and interactiveness is brought across into this from the original dragon age which was a very enjoyable and I spent many hours playing it.

I'm hoping it will have abit of a gfx jump too instead of just looking the same as the first game. :P

I wouldn't mind it looking like the same game.

It will probably look better than the first game :) It can't possibly be worse :D

I hope it's optimized a bit better.

I hope it becomes more simplified. Not that it wasn't simple before, but it wasn't simple enough at first. Especially the tactics. They should have a tactic training room or something like that...

I hope for more of the epic cutscenes.
