If you already own Dragon Age II, you may have received an email today from BioWare offering you to take part in their Sequel Celebration. The company says that Dragon Age II hit 1 million copies sold within two weeks of launch – faster than Dragon Age: Origins – and Bioware is celebrating by giving away a free copy of Mass Effect 2 for PC. Players need an active EA Account and a copy of Dragon Age II with the Black Emporium Online Pass, so unfortunately consumers won’t be able to give their copy of Mass Effect 2 to a friend if they already own the game. The offer is live until midnight PDT on April 30, 2011, so people who haven't picked up Dragon Age II yet can get in on the deal. “Thanks to gamers like you, Dragon Age II is off to a great start – breaking the 1 million mark in less than two weeks and faster than Dragon Age: Origins. We appreciate your support. As a special thank you for helping with the game's early success, BioWare would like to present you with a download code for 2010's Game of the Year, Mass Effect 2 on PC,” reads the email. “As always, we sincerely appreciate your support and passion as we remain focused on delivering quality interactive experiences now and in the future. Look for more exciting things coming from Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and Star Wars: The Old Republic in the future, including our recent launch of Mass Effect 2 Arrival DLC.” Bioware and EA have been pushing hard with the cross-title synergy, offering item unlocks with the purchase or preorder of titles across multiple franchises like Mass Effect, Dead Space, andDragon Age. Is the strategy working on gamers? http://www.industrygamers.com/news/mass-effect-2-becomes-free-for-dragon-age-ii-purchasers/
