28.10.2024

19.9.2024
I have been waiting for Dragon Age: The Veilguard for 10 years. The last game developer BioWare put out was 2019’s Anthem, an ill-fated loot shooter that chased live-service trends and felt like a misuse of the team’s talents. In the years since, there have been reports and admissions from...

BioWare changed the name of Dragon Age: The Veilguard from Dreadwolf in order to better reflect that the RPG is about its cast of heroes, rather than about Solas, the elven trickster god at its center. But even so, we still don’t know a ton about the party we’ll journey alongside when the game...
