A Decade in the Making

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Release Date and Gameplay RevealDragon Age: The Veilguard's development has been a long and complex process, marked by significant delays spanning almost a decade. The project, initially launched in 2015 after Dragon Age: Inquisition, faced numerous challenges. BioWare's focus shifted to Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem, impacting resource allocation and development timelines. The initial design, incompatible with the company's live-service strategy, resulted in a complete development halt.

The project, then codenamed "Joplin," was revived in 2018 under the codename "Morrison." After further development, it was officially announced as Dragon Age: Dreadwolf in 2022 before settling on its current title.

Despite the 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. Get ready for Thedas; the wait is almost over!
