Dragon Age: The Veilguard Launches October 31st, Pre-Orders Now Available
Can you quite believe Dragon Age: Inquisition is now a decade old? Time flies when you’re left on a cliffhanger finale. After what feels like an eternity, BioWare’s next entry in the series, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, will be releasing on October 31st. We’re sure the Halloween release date will have no bearing on what to expect from the game.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard will launch globally for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam (Deck Verified), EA App and Epic Games Store. Additionally, pre-orders have now gone live, so you can pre-order the Standard and Deluxe Editions, should you wish.
Of course, a launch trailer has been set out into the world to give us a glimpse of what to expect from BioWare’s next outing:
Still not enough to whet the appetite for you? Well, luckily for you, we have more nuggets of information to gleefully set your eyes upon:
In Dragon Age: The Veilguard, players will step into the role of Rook, a fully-customisable 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 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,” said John Epler, Creative Director of Dragon Age: The Veilguard. “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.”
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.

Can BioWare restore some lost faith after the debacle of Anthem? Only time will tell, but with another Mass Effect game already in development, we’ll all be hoping Dragon Age: The Veilguard can deliver. A return to form with one of their flagship series certainly won’t do any harm.
