amount of options. Players can download the character creator and get more

In Dragon Age: Origins, players take the role of
a Grey Warden, one of the last of an ancient order of guardians. Now, as a
rising evil threatens to destroy all life, it is up to players to unite the
shattered lands and slay the corrupted dragon known as the Archdemon. To restore
peace, players must make ruthless decisions and be willing to sacrifice their
friends and loved ones for the greater good of mankind.

Dragon Age: Origins will be released on November
6th in Europe on the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system and PC. The
European PlayStation®3 version will follow later in November. Dragon Age:
Origins is rated M by the ESRB and 18+ by PEGI.
