Electronic Arts and BioWare are preparing for a bombastic end to the year. This is because they are working on the development of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, a fantasy RPG (following the previous ones) that promises strong emotions for all lovers of this type of games and the Dragon Age series.
Dragon Age, which is one of Bioware’s greatest successes, has already made its transition to Television, with a series on NetFlix, returns after several years of hiatus.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which will be released for Playstation 5, Xbox Series . In fact, Veilguard’s narrative is precisely one of the points in which the Bioware team invested the most effort.
To whet the appetite of fans and interested parties, a cinematic trailer has now been revealed that shows a new range of companions that will join players on their journey in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
In this next chapter of the Dragon Age series, players will step into the role of the new, fully customizable Dragon hero, Rook, as he fights on the frontlines alongside an extraordinary array of heroes known as the Veilguard.

Each companion in Dragon Age: The Veilguard brings their experience to the battlefield, summoning the courage to stand together and face the most impossible odds. Throughout their adventures, players will be able to mix and match different team combinations of two of the seven companions at a time, to adapt to certain challenges and put together powerful combinations that can change the course of any battle.
