Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which didn’t used to have that name, has always been one of 2024’s most anticipated games. For a very long time, precious few details were even available. Players had no idea when it was coming out, either. The official release date was finally announced, and more details have been revealed lately as well. That date is drawing closer and closer, and it’s probably time to start getting excited for the latest entry in the iconic RPG franchise.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard Release Date
The Veilguard is officially being released on October 31. You can pre-order the title, but there is no early access period. Everyone will have to wait until Oct. 31 to play the game. The expected release time is noon EST on that day, which will of course be translated to whatever time zone you are in. However, that expectation did not come directly from Bioware, the developers, so it could just be once the clock hits midnight after October 30. If you’ve pre-ordered the game, you may see October 29 on the game file. This is when it will download, not when it’s available.
Platforms
Dragon Age: The Veilguard is not a console exclusive. Despite EA, the publisher of the game, having a strong relationship with Microsoft, it is not only for Xbox. It is, however, a current-gen exclusive. Players can only play the game on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, or Microsoft Windows. Those with an Xbox One or PlayStation 4 will have to upgrade their console to try this new game out.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard Trailer
The Dragon Age trailer was released three months ago, so players have been able to check out what the game will look, sound, and feel like for a while now. That has only increased the excitement.
Details
The official synopsis from Bioware reads:
“Solas, the Dread Wolf and Elven Trickster god of legend, wants to tear down the Veil that separates Thedas from the world of demons, restoring his people’s immortality and glory—even at the cost of countless lives. But his ritual goes awry, and his worst fears are realized, as two of his most ancient and powerful adversaries are released. They seek only to finish what they started millennia ago – the complete and utter domination of our world. Rook’s journey to stop these two powerful deities will span across all of Thedas to bustling cities, lush tropics, boreal forests, fettered swamps and the deepest depths, but be wary of the evil forces along the way like the Dark Spawn, Venatori Cultists and Demons of the Fade.”
Dragon Age: The Veilguard is an RPG, adventure, fighting (like Dragon Ball Sparking! ZERO), shooter, and strategy game.
