It took 10 years to get here, but we finally have Dragon Age: The Veilguard, the fourth entry in BioWare’s beloved (but divisive) fantasy RPG series. The sequel is a direct continuation of 2014’s Inquisition, and it’s made the full shift to action RPG. Your mileage may vary on that, but I loved the game despite a decade of growing cynicism toward the franchise.
It has probably the best cast of characters in the series, drops some incredible lore reveals, and overall feels like a fresh start for the series after a decade in development hell. Veilguard’s launch has also been hellish, as it’s become a centerpiece in the ongoing online culture war, but the series is no stranger to such controversy.
We’ll be covering the RPG a great deal in the coming weeks, including more commentary, guides, and community stories, but if you’re looking for some of the big stuff we have so far, here’s a roundup of our coverage from launch week.
