Dragon Age Dreadwolf now Dragon Age The Veilguard

Okay.

Dragon Age The Veilguard is the new name of Dragon Age Dreadwolf, once known as Dragon Age 4. Got all that?

“At BioWare, we create worlds of adventure, conflict and companionship, where you’re at the center of it all. As fans of our franchise know, every Dragon Age game has delivered a new standalone story. Set in the world of Thedas, these tales explore epic locales and threats, always thrusting you into a new conflict. Each game also introduces a new lead hero – The Warden, Hawke, The Inquisitor – that you can call your own. You can expect all that, and more, with the new game. And of course, much like your unique hero, it wouldn’t be a Dragon Age game without an amazing cast of companions,” EA and BioWare said, setting up the name change.

“Each of the seven unique characters that make up your companions will have deep and compelling storylines where the decisions you make will impact your relationships with them – as well as their lives. You’ll unite this team of unforgettable heroes as you take on a terrifying new threat unleashed on the world. Naturally, the Dread Wolf still has an important part in this tale, but you and your companions – not your enemies – are the heart of this new experience.

“So, to capture what this game is all about, we changed the name as the original title didn’t show just how strongly we feel about our new heroes, their stories and how you’ll need to bring them together to save all of Thedas.”

In addition to the name change, BioWare confirmed that we’ll finally get to see some game play from The Veilguard next week. Here in Australia, the Dragon Age YouTube channel will offer up 15 minutes of gameplay from 1.00 am AEST on Wednesday, 12 June.

We’ll have more on Dragon Age The Veilguard as it’s made available.

Update [10 June]: Here’s the big Veilguard trailer that we were promised — check it out and tell us what you think!
