Heroes of Dragon Age is being developed by EA Capital Games, one of the publisher's mobile-focused studios.
You'll be able to build a party of heroes and monsters from (presumably random and paid-for) packs of new fighters.
These characters and critters will "span Dragon Age lore", EA has promised - so look out for familiar faces from the console games so far.
Other Heroes of Dragon Age details such as a release date or launch platforms are still scarce. EA describes it as a "cross-platform" title though, so releases on at least iPhone and Android look likely.
While I could at least understand the appeal of Dragon Age: Journeys, this just leaves me confused.
UPDATE: The press release is here, as are the first four screenshots:
