A Decade in the Making
Dragon Age: The Veilguard's development has been a long and complex process, marked by significant delays spanning almost a decade. Initially starting in 2015 after Dragon Age: Inquisition, the project, then codenamed "Joplin," was impacted by BioWare's focus on Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem. Further, the initial design's incompatibility with the company's live-service strategy led to a complete development halt.
Resurrected in 2018 under the codename "Morrison," the game was officially announced as Dragon Age: Dreadwolf in 2022 before settling on its current title.
Despite the challenges, 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, Thedas awaits!
