For the longest time, details about the new Dragon Age game were practically nonexistent. But now, Dragon Age: The Veilguard (previously known as “Dreadwolf”) has officially announced its release date, just a couple of months away.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard will officially launch on October 31, 2024. This follows a slew of reported production issues over the past few years. But, it’s finally arriving, marking ten years since Dragon Age: Inquisition graced our screens.
As we have revealed yesterday, the trailer was revealed today, which revealed its release date. The first trailer for the game appeared only two months ago, and now it’s going to release just four months after that initial reveal. The trailer had been a place of controversy, due to its altered art style compared to previous games in the series. While the series has evolved its art style multiple times, this new look feels a bit cartoonish.
The release date trailer can be found below:

The official description by BioWare can be found just below:
Solas, the Dread Wolf and Elven Trickster god of legend, wants to tear down the Veil that separates Thedas from the world of demons, restoring his people’s immortality and glory-even at the cost of countless lives. But his ritual goes awry, and his worst fears are realized, as two of his most ancient and powerful adversaries are released. They seek only to finish what they started millennia ago – the complete and utter domination of our world. Rook’s journey to stop these two powerful deities will span across all of Thedas to bustling cities, lush tropics, boreal forests, fettered swamps and the deepest depths, but be wary of the evil forces along the way like the Dark Spawn, Venatori Cultists and Demons of the Fade.
