More announcements for BioWare’s anticipated release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard have been slowly coming out over the last few weeks. While quite a lot of tidbits and insights on what the game will entail—what companions will join their players on their adventure, what the narrative will be all about, and what combat will look like—have trickled out to fans, the one thing that players have been pining to know is when it will come out.
Via official channels, BioWare has announced the upcoming schedule for their current plan to roll out new information for the latest installment of the Dragon Age franchise. Apart from articles and exclusives, upcoming promotions will include a High-Level Combat & PC spotlight during the week of August 19th, a “Companion Week” during the week of August 26th, and a Developer Discord Q&A on August 30th. As well as, a month-long exclusive coverage run on IGN, starting the week of September 3rd -which is bound to give fans loads more information and add even more to the building excitement.
Trailer
At noon on August 15, 2023, BioWare divulged the game’s official release window via their YouTube channel. The two-minute and fifty-five-second cinematic trailer garnered a live audience numbering in the tens of thousands of concurrent exuberant Dragon Age fans. Boasting a who’s who of legendary cameos from iconic game characters. The trailer begins with our originally believed antagonist, Solas, castigating the player for unleashing the “blighted Elven gods” upon the land of Thedas, accompanied by in-game footage.
Morrigan steps in to continue where Solas leaves off, explaining the insurmountable destiny that you are now faced with via voice-over. Varric chimes in to give Rook a pep talk, telling them, “Rook, you’ve got this. I’ve seen your work. You’re clever, adaptable, and you don’t know when to quit.” Throughout the trailer, players are gifted with a cornucopia of shots from in-game that players will see soon.
Highlighting beautiful locals such as Tevinter, the Grand Necropolis in Nevarra, the arid landscape of the Anderfels, underwater locals, underground dungeons, ruined ancient temples, and so much more. Alongside all of this splendor, several characters make an appearance in the cinematic. Including our titular storyteller Varric, our companions, and, in a highlight to many, Morrigan -sporting her new, and arguably most interesting, look.
