Dragon Age: The Veilguard has been a long time coming. It's been a decade since developer BioWare delivered Dragon Age: Inquisition, a successful fantasy-RPG that the studio has struggled to match in the years since its release – Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem followed, each failing to ignite the imagination. There's a lot of pressure for The Veilguard to deliver where it counts, particularly as plenty of false starts have hung over development of Dragon Age 4.
That's why GamesRadar+ was so curious to finally get the chance to sit down with Dragon Age: The Veilguard. We've played seven hours of the new BioWare RPG, spoken with the studio's creative leads about its ambitions in the genre, and worked to better understand the surprising ways that Dragon Age is transformed for the modern era. Whether you've been following the series from its origins or are only now taking your first steps into the world of Thedas, we're pretty certain that this is one game you won't want to miss.
