Dragon Age to Feature Four In-Game Languages

According to an article in The New York Times, BioWare has contracted the same linguist that created the Tho Fan language for Jade Empire to create four unique languages for Dragon Age.

Since then, Mr. Wikeley has created four more languages for another BioWare game, Dragon Age. In the interest of a verisimilitude that perhaps only a linguist would notice, he has invented a history that explains how and when each tongue borrowed or modified a word from another, across thousands of fictional years.

That’s gotta be a lot of work.
