BioWare hopes you'll make Dragon Age: The Veilguard builds so good they'll break the game with its higher level cap — "Nothing would make me happier than somebody outsmarting our best tuners"

Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

What you need to know

  • Dragon Age: The Veilguard is an upcoming fantasy RPG from developer BioWare and publisher Electronic Arts, and is the first new mainline game in the Dragon Age franchise since Dragon Age: Inquisition.
  • During a conversation Windows Central had with game director Corinne Busche, she emphasized that buildcrafting will be an important part of the game, with the level cap of 50 — much higher than the Level 27-30 limit of previous entries — hopefully enabling players to "feel like they can outsmart us."
  • "We want players to find emergent builds ... my goodness, nothing would make me happier than somebody outsmarting our best tuners," she said.
  • Busche also confirmed that enemies will scale with the player so that the overall experience will remain challenging and engaging throughout, and noted that balancing the expanded number of buildcrafting options required "some really insightful forethought in how we were going to handle the underlying damage calculations."
