Dragon Age: Inquisition's PS3 Online Services Are Scheduled to End on April 28

Electronic Arts has finally put a concrete date on the long tail of Dragon Age: Inquisition support. On its legal service-updates page, EA now lists the PlayStation 3 version of the game for April 28, 2026. The entry itself is brief, but it matters because Inquisition launched in 2014 and its PS3 edition still represents a rare piece of the series' cross-generation history.

What is confirmed

The clearest confirmed detail is the date. EA's notice names Dragon Age: Inquisition for PlayStation 3 and assigns April 28, 2026 as the service sunset. Reporting around the update, including Kotaku's coverage, says the change ends multiplayer functionality on PS3. That fits the version's role in Inquisition's original release, where the main single-player campaign remained the center of the package while co-op gave the older platform a smaller online layer.

Why this matters now

In practical terms, the story is less about active player counts and more about preservation and platform cleanup. Inquisition's online support has outlived a surprising number of newer live-service projects. The PS3 version also sits at an awkward but important moment for BioWare: it arrived before Anthem, before the studio's reset around Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and before the industry normalized much faster server shutdowns for older releases.

That is why this small EA update carries more weight than a routine backend notice. It closes the book on a specific version of Dragon Age that bridged the franchise's old and new eras. For players who still keep a PS3 connected for backlog runs, trophies, or nostalgia, April 28 is the date that now matters.

What remains unclear

EA's official page is concise and does not spell out every downstream effect. Kotaku noted that EA has not publicly clarified whether the change affects anything beyond the PS3 online layer, including possible Dragon Age Keep concerns raised by fans. Until EA says more, the safest reading is narrow: the confirmed shutdown date is April 28, 2026 for Dragon Age: Inquisition on PS3, and current reporting indicates the impacted piece is that platform's multiplayer support.
