Dragon Age: The Veil GuardThe release date trailer is officially here, giving us a brand new look at the upcoming role-playing game (RPG).
Although the release date was leaked earlier, we finally have official confirmation that The veil keeper will be released on October 31 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC.
Alongside this announcement, we also received new story details following the first 20-minute gameplay demo that debuted this summer. The trailer sees playable protagonist Rook on a quest to recruit his companions to fight back against the ancient elven gods they accidentally unleashed, with interspersed scenes of some third-person gameplay.
Perhaps one of the most exciting reveals from the trailer is the confirmation that fan-favorite character Morrigan will be returning, sporting a new wardrobe befitting a mage. We also get to see Solas seemingly take on a dragon in his Dreadwolf form, something fans have been waiting a decade for.
“As someone who has been on for a while Dragon Age “I’ve known for over 15 years how much our community has been looking forward to this day, and I’m thrilled to share and celebrate the game officially launching on October 31,” said Creative Director John Epler.
“We wanted to give you the choice to truly express yourself, and to do so in a world filled with adventure and danger. So whether you’re a Warrior, Rogue, or Mage, we can’t wait for you to gear up, gather your party, and set out on another exciting adventure across Thedas this Halloween.”
Pre-order have also gone live, detailing the pre-order bonus. There are several options to choose from, including a Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, and a special Rook’s Coffer Edition, which comes with a variety of collectibles, including a replica of the Lyrium Dagger highlighted in the trailer.
Now that we finally have a release date, fans can look forward to even more spotlights in the coming weeks thanks to the latest roadmap, which will offer a deeper look into The veil keeper in the run-up to the official launch.
