With such a protracted hole between Dragon Age: Inquisition and Veilguard, there was at all times the fear the 2 is perhaps unrelated, however BioWare was at all times positive they’d be.
It has been a little bit of a bizarre 10 years for BioWare. Following the robust reception of Dragon Age: Inquisition, it is solely managed to place out two video games, the critically lukewarm Mass Impact: Andromeda, and the even-worse rated Anthem. That second one is probably going extra the fault of a top-down push for live-service video games, contemplating how a lot of a push there was for them within the late 2010s. And now, someday this yr, the beloved developer is lastly releasing a brand new Dragon Age recreation, The Veilguard. So it is fairly comprehensible for those who as a fan are a bit fearful about it, notably as as to whether or not the sequel would decide up the place Inquisition and its DLC left off.
Fortunately, in an interview with Edge Journal (by way of GamesRadar), director John Epler made it clear that The Veilguard was at all times going to proceed the story Inquisition setup. “The world exists because it does due to Solas,” Epler mentioned. “He formed the world due to the form of character he was. That is, to me, what makes Dragon Age so attention-grabbing. All the pieces can tie again to an individual who to some extent thought they have been doing the best factor.”
In truth, Solas is so vital to Thedas’ future, Epler says that the subsequent Dragon Age recreation after Inquisition was at all times going to be concerning the character. “We set that up on the finish of Trespasser. There was no world the place we have been ever going to say, ‘And now let’s go to one thing fully totally different’. We needed to repay that promise.”
There you might have it, nothing to fret about! You additionally do not have to fret about BioWare repeating its errors with Anthem by including in multiplayer, because it’s already determined in opposition to it for The Veilguard. Now if solely we may get a launch dateβ¦ no less than we all know it will be coming by October on the earliest.
