"Dragon Age," the fantasy role playing video game from BioWare, is being offered at a discounted price on Xbox Live.

Microsoft's Larry Hyrb announced the latest deals available on Xbox Live for the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One earlier this week on his blog,  Major Nelson.

The new titles, which are available at discounted rates for Xbox Live Gold members, include "Dragon Age: Inquisition – Game of the Year Edition," an Xbox One game released in 2015. This is a compilation which includes the 2014 main game "Dragon Age: Inquisition" as well as all of its downloadable content (DLC) packages. It is currently available at 60 percent off on the Xbox Games Store. The add-ons "Dragon Age: Inquisition – Trespasser," "Dragon Age: Inquisition – The Descent," and "Dragon Age: Inquisition – Jaws of Hakkon" are also available at 67 percent off.

The other titles currently being offered at a discounted price include "Just Cause 3," "Just Cause 3 XL Edition" and "Dovetail Games Euro Fishing."

The discounts are valid until Monday, Sept. 26.

Meanwhile, Electronic Arts, the publisher behind "Dragon Age," has placed many of its numerous titles under new leadership.

Earlier this month, EA announced an organizational update and introduced the new EA Worldwide Studios in a press release. "EA Worldwide Studios will bring together our top creative talent in all of our great studios to work on EA's powerful brand portfolio and new IP," the company's statement read.

EA Worldwide Studios will encompass EA studios such as EA Maxis, which develops "The Sims" and "SimCity," and EA Mobile, which produces a variety of games for mobile phones. BioWare, the developer behind "Dragon Age," will now be under former DICE head Patrick Söderlund, who will be running EA Worldwide.

EA notes that the organizational restructuring is designed to strengthen the various EA studios and the company's technological problem.

According to Engadget, an EA representative has confirmed that the changes will not have negative effects on PopCap or any of the studios under EA Sports.

No new "Dragon Age" games have been announced by EA.
