• Dragon Age: Origins sold 3.2 million units.
• Dragon Age II sold 2 million units.
• Dragon Age: Inquisition sales reached 6 million units.

From the first line of statistics, we can see that the series has accumulated a lot of sales for all three of the games, at least as far as the documentation can attest, although the number might be even higher. Nevertheless, we can see that Inquisition was the most successful Dragon Age game, shipping over 6 million units and likely many more in the years since its release.

The Dragon Age revenue reached $32.4 million on Steam.

• Dragon Age: Origins grossed $6.7 million.
• Dragon Age: Origins – Ultimate Edition grossed $16.2 million.
• Dragon Age II grossed $1.4 million.
• Dragon Age Inquisition grossed $8.1 million.

BioWare does not post the financial achievement of its games too often, so all we can rely on here is the information from the Steam releases of the games, which will give us a ballpark estimate of the amount of money generated on this platform. Contrary to what you might expect, Inquisition was not the most successful Steam-released Dragon Age game. That position belongs to the Digital Deluxe Edition of Dragon Age: Origins.

Dragon Age: Origins topped the Steam charts in 2009.

• The first two spots were taken by two versions of Dragon Age — Origins and Origins Digital Deluxe Edition.
• The game beat very popular titles like Left 4 Dead 2, Borderlands, Modern Warfare 2, etc.

Because the games have a gameplay dynamic that appeals to a wide variety of games and fantasy enthusiasts, it is no wonder that the original Dragon Age performed so well on the sales charts. Just like the original, subsequent games enjoyed similar success in the following years.

• 9% of players chose Nightmare difficulty.
• The most popular background for Hawke was as a female mage.
• 73% of players played the game on PC.
• 16% of players played the game on Xbox 360.
• 13% of players played the game on PS3.

• 45% of players chose to play on Normal difficulty.
• 21% of players chose to play on Casual difficulty.
• 19% of players chose to play on Hard difficulty.
• 16% of players chose to play on Nightmare difficulty.

• 20% of players played the game on PS4.
• 8% of players played the game on Xbox One.
• 5% of players played the game on Xbox 360.
• 4% of players played the game on PS4.

What’s interesting here is the number of people who chose Normal difficulty in Dragon Age: Inquisition is less than half, meaning other difficulties were more chosen than in previous games. This emphasizes Casual difficulty, so some players prefer a storytelling approach to the game.
