I’ve been a big fan of the Dragon Age franchise for a while now. In fact, I’d say that Dragon Age: The Veilguard is one of my most anticipated games of 2024. The continued adventures in Thedas excite the hell out of me, especially with the idea that we’re going to Tevinter this time. Also, I kind of like the new visual design, even if some folks are “clowning” on it.
Now, Dragon Age: The Veilguard has a firm release date, of October 31st, 2024. It will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with Pre-orders available now. Here is what the press release says about Dragon Age: The Veilguard:
“In Dragon Age: The Veilguard, players will step into the role of Rook, a fully-customizable protagonist who must rise up, unite their crew[,] and become the hero Thedas needs in a time where legends are born or slain. Joining Rook in their fight against corrupt Elven gods is a cast of seven compelling companions, each of whom hails from an iconic faction from Dragon Age lore.
In addition to their own personal storylines and motivations, companions Bellara, Davrin, Emmrich, Harding, Lucanis, Neve[,] and Taash all bring unique combat abilities and equipment to the fray, which Rook must strategically implement in their fight for the future of Thedas.
As a character-driven RPG, Dragon Age: The Veilguard offers a crafted experience woven from the threads of rich storytelling and fantasy worldbuilding the franchise is known for. In this bold, heroic adventure, players will experience expansive and dynamic stories that navigate love, loss[,] and complex choices that affect relationships and the fate of each member of the Veilguard. In true Dragon Age fashion, these bonds of fellowship are the foundation upon which Rook’s journey is built, and it will be up to the player to determine how their personal story unfolds.”
John Epler, Creative Director of Dragon Age: The Veilguard commented on this, stating: “As someone who’s been working on Dragon Age for over 15 years, I know just how much our community has been looking forward to this day, and I’m equally excited to share and celebrate that the game will officially launch on October 31.
We wanted to give you the choice to really express yourself, and do that in a world full of adventure and danger. So whether you’re a Warrior, Rogue or a Mage, we can’t wait for you to gear up, gather your party, and set out for another thrilling adventure through Thedas this Halloween.”
I could not be more excited about this. I’ve been enjoying Dragon Age’s stories since the very first game was released. I have even picked up the novels and explored the myriad of content outside of the games to immerse myself in the world more deeply. October 31st couldn’t come soon enough.
