A Decade in the Making

The development of Dragon Age: The Veilguard has been a long and complex process, marked by significant delays spanning nearly a decade. Initially starting in 2015 after Dragon Age: Inquisition, the project, then codenamed "Joplin," was sidelined due to BioWare's focus on Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem. Further complicating matters, the original design didn't align with the company's live-service strategy, leading to a complete development halt.

Revived in 2018 under the codename "Morrison," the game was formally announced as Dragon Age: Dreadwolf in 2022 before settling on its current title.

Despite the numerous setbacks, the journey is nearing its end. Dragon Age: The Veilguard is slated for release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S this fall. Prepare yourselves, Thedas awaits!
