The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) has handed out a Special Recognition award to Dragon Age: Inquisition, appreciating the game for its representation of LGBT characters. The organization wrote on its website:

Electronic Arts and BioWare’s videogame Dragon Age: Inquisition received a Special Recognition award for the many complex and unique LGBT characters prominently integrated throughout the game.
