BioWare has released a new developer diary detailing the combat in Dragon Age: Inquisition, which also shows off some alpha footage.
The combat will, according to the developer, be taking the best parts of Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II and mixing them up - and it seems the result is sort of a melee-focused Mass Effect 3 combat system; the enemies with large tower shields only seem to heighten the resemblance.
Check out the developer diary in the video below. Dragon Age: Inquisition is being developed for PC as well as current- and next-gen consoles.
