A Decade in the Making

Dragon Age: The Veilguard's development has been a long and complex process, facing numerous delays spanning almost a decade. Initially starting in 2015 after Dragon Age: Inquisition, development was impacted by BioWare's focus shifting to Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem. Furthermore, initial design conflicts with the company's live-service strategy led to a complete development halt.

The project was revived in 2018 under a new codename, eventually announced as Dragon Age: Dreadwolf in 2022 before settling on its current title.

Despite the challenges, the wait is nearly over. Dragon Age: The Veilguard is slated for release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S this fall. Prepare yourselves, Thedas awaits!
