Dragon Age fans, rejoice! BioWare’s highly anticipated follow-up to Dragon Age: Inquisition, titled Dragon Age: The Veilguard, is finally on the horizon. After a ten-year wait, a new chapter in the beloved fantasy RPG franchise is poised to take players back to the realm of Thedas.
The Veilguard promises a return to form for BioWare, emphasizing the aspects that made Dragon Age a fan favorite in the first place. This includes a robust character creator, allowing players to meticulously craft their hero and tailor their appearance to their vision. But BioWare’s commitment goes beyond aesthetics.
For the first time in the series, Dragon Age: The Veilguard allows players to import major decisions from previous Dragon Age games directly into their new playthrough, without the need for an online connection. This innovative feature caters to dedicated Dragon Age veterans, ensuring their choices in past adventures carry weight and influence the narrative in The Veilguard.
Further prioritizing player agency, BioWare has confirmed that Dragon Age: The Veilguard will be entirely playable offline. No mandatory online connection or EA account linking will be required to delve into the world of Thedas. This approach stands in stark contrast to the recent trend of “always-online” features in games, and is sure to resonate with players who value a self-contained, uninterrupted experience.
The commitment to a complete single-player experience extends to the in-game economy as well. BioWare has definitively stated that there will be no microtransactions or battle passes present in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. This stands as a welcome message in an era where microtransactions have become increasingly prevalent, and underscores BioWare’s focus on delivering a full, content-rich single-player journey.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard represents a love letter to the series’ dedicated fanbase. From the expansive character creator to the seamless import of past decisions, and the unwavering commitment to an offline, microtransaction-free experience, BioWare is demonstrably crafting a game built by fans, for fans. With its release date approaching, The Veilguard promises to rekindle the magic of Thedas and usher in a new era for the Dragon Age franchise.
