BioWare's ending was caught on camera. The studio's final two years were filmed and will be released as a documentary next year, according to reports from IGN and Rock Paper Shotgun.

The timing gives the project an unexpectedly heavy weight. EA shut down the iconic studio last month, closing the book on the developer behind Mass Effect, Dragon Age and Knights of the Old Republic — one of the most influential RPG houses in the industry's history. What presumably began as behind-the-scenes access to a storied developer now doubles as a record of its last days.

Rock Paper Shotgun's take captured the mood of much of the games press: initial curiosity about the documentary, followed immediately by the gut-punch realization of what it will actually chronicle. Studio closures usually happen behind closed doors, with the story reconstructed later through reporting and ex-employee interviews. A camera crew embedded through the final stretch is a rarity.

No release date beyond the 2027 window has been detailed yet. For fans still processing the shutdown, it promises an unusually direct look at how a legendary studio winds down.
