Dragon Age Legends Now Available on Google+

Those of you who have scoffed at signing up for Facebook but are considering a plunge into Google’s social network will be happy to learn that BioWare San Francisco’s Dragon Age Legends is now playable on the Google+ platform. The announcement comes from a new blog entry penned by co-founder Ray Muzyka:

I’m very pleased to announce that Dragon Age Legends is available today on Google+! At BioWare, we’re always looking for opportunities to bring our franchises to a wider audience, whether it’s through movies, comics, novels or through extending our games to different platforms. Our teams continue to innovate in the social gaming space with Dragon Age Legends providing our existing fans a new way to enjoy the universe of Dragon Age, while also introducing the franchise to millions of new players on Google+ and Facebook. Legends can be played cooperatively as you explore the Free Marches and progress your hero, or competitively against your friends in the Guild PVP arenas; I can attest that however you choose to play it, it’s a fun and highly addictive game :).

He goes on to provide a FAQ, too:

Are there any differences in content between the Google+ and Facebook versions of Dragon Age Legends?
No. The content of each version of the game is identical, and game updates will launch simultaneously.
Can I import my Dragon Age Legends hero from Facebook to Google+?
No. The Facebook and Google+ versions of Dragon Age Legends are completely independent of each other. If you’ve already played the game on Facebook, you’re able to create a brand-new hero on Google+. Try playing as another class for a very different DAL experience!
Can I summon my Facebook friends into battle using Google+ and vice versa?
No. If you’re playing Dragon Age Legends on both social networks, you will have two separate friends lists.
Can I share crowns between Google+ and Facebook?
No. You maintain a separate crown balance for each social network.
How do I purchase crowns on Google+?
Google+ uses Google Checkout, a service included with your Google account. Google Checkout accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards.
Note: PayPal cannot be used with Google+.
If I’ve already unlocked the Dragon Age 2 items on Facebook, do I have tounlock them again on Google+?
No. Both games are tied to your EA account, so once you unlock the Dragon Age 2 items on either network, you do not need to unlock them again.
Do in-game redeem promo packs work on Google+ like the Mass Effect 2 and Dead Space 2 gear even if I’ve already redeemed them on Facebook?
Yes. Any of the promo packs you can earn in Dragon Age Legends on Facebook can be redeemed on Google+ even if you’ve already redeemed them on one social network. That means, for example, you’ll be able to wear the Mass Effect armor on both Facebook and Google+.
The only exceptions are items earned by playing Dragon Age Legends: Remix 01, which currently can only be redeemed on Facebook.
