A Decade-Long Development
The journey to bring Dragon Age: The Veilguard to life has been an epic one, spanning nearly a decade. Development began in 2015, following Dragon Age: Inquisition. However, BioWare's focus shifted to Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem, causing delays and impacting the project—initially codenamed "Joplin." Further complicating matters, the initial design didn't align with the company's live-service strategy, leading to a complete development halt.
In 2018, The Veilguard was revived under the codename "Morrison." After years of further development and several title changes (including the previously announced Dragon Age: Dreadwolf), the game is finally nearing release.
Despite the challenges, the wait is nearly over. Dragon Age: The Veilguard is launching on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S this fall. Get ready, because your journey to Thedas is about to begin!
