Heroes of Dragon Age allows players to purchase and collect 3D figures of characters called 'heroes' in the game, form them into a squad, and then battle either player or AI-controlled enemies. Each quest is a self-contained map and lets players re-experience key moments from the main Dragon Age video games, novels, and codex entries. These alternative story elements serve as the backdrop for up to 16 quests available in the game's single-player format, which delve into extant game lore such as the Fifth Blight or during the fall of the ancient elven capital of Arlathan. Unlike other spin-off media from the Dragon Age franchise, Heroes of Dragon Age does not contribute additional backstory or lore instead, it explores what would happen if pivotal moments from various plot lines in the series have occurred differently.

The game received a soft launch in select countries during October 2013 for Android devices, and was released on Decemfor Android and iOS platforms. It is a spin-off title utilizing collectibles based on characters and lore from the Dragon Age fantasy series. Heroes of Dragon Age is a freemium mobile tactical role-playing game developed by Capital Games and published by Electronic Arts.
