Dragon Age: The Veilguard, an all-new single-player fantasy RPG is coming to PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S and PC in Fall 2024. The player’s newest fully-customizable hero, Rook, battles on the front lines alongside the Veilguard. The game promises each companion entering the fray will have their own storylines, motivations and skill trees.
Introducing the Veilguard
Dragon Age: The Veilguard sees players explore the land of Thedas fighting against ancient elven gods. Players can choose between three classes – Warrior, Mage, or Rogue and use the new customizable ability wheel to make battles for fluid and kinetic. The wheel will allow players to pause the action, issue commands to your followers, use abilities, and unleash devastating combos.
With the last game, Dragon Age: Inquisition released last 2014, there a huge gap for Dragon Age games. EA and Bioware has been hard at work making the game play feel right while retaining all the core aspects of Dragon Age. Alternate branching paths, character customization, and choices that matter are important aspects. We can see from the gameplay that those aspect do seem retained and friendly for newcomers.
From the press release, The game’s cast of companions includes:
- Bellara, a creative and romantic Veil Jumper obsessed with uncovering ancient secrets.
- Davrin, a bold and charming Grey Warden who has made a name for himself as a monster hunter.
- Emmrich, a necromancer of Nevarra’s Mourn Watch who comes complete with a skeletal assistant, Manfred.
- Harding, the dwarven scout, returns to the fray as a companion with her big heart, a positive outlook, and a ready bow – as well as unexpected magical powers.
- Lucanis, a poised & pragmatic assassin who descends from the bloodline of the House of Crows, a criminal organization renowned throughout Thedas.
- Neve, a cynic fighting for a better future, both as a private detective and a member of Tevinter’s rebellious Shadow Dragons.
- Taash, a dragon hunter allied with the Lords of Fortune who lives for adventure and doesn’t mind taking risks.
