In many ways, Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a game of revelations for the series. At last giving some answers to longheld questions, BioWare's latest RPG lifts the lid on the nature of the Blight, the true story of the elves, and even explores the real history of the dwarves. It's a real treat for lore fans, but it also begs one major question: what's next for Dragon Age?
With some big mysteries put to rest and some major ongoing story arcs resolved, the future of the series is arguably wide open. With the chance to speak with creative director John Epler, that openness is what's most exciting about whatever comes next after The Veilguard.
"I love how much we reveal, but I also love how many questions we've also started asking throughout the game," Epler says. "And I think what's exciting about this one going into, say, someday we do a Dragon Age 5, or whatever comes next, I think there's just a feeling of possibility. There's a feeling that we can tell any story we want to tell. And I think there's going to be a lot of opportunity to tell something that feels very identifiably Dragon Age, but brings in new elements and new characters."
