Dragon Age: The Veilguard Gameplay Trailer Reveals New Details
Character Customization and Combat
In Dragon Age: The Veilguard, you can create your main character, Rook, at the start. You get to pick if Rook is a human, elf, dwarf, or Qunari, and then make them unique. In a demo, they showed Rook as a human Rogue with a Shadow Dragon background, and the choices you make during the game affect how Rook talks to others in the game, which makes each time you play different.
When you fight in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, you will feel like it’s a mix of how battles work in games like Final Fantasy 16 and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Rook, the Rogue, can do cool moves with daggers and shoot arrows from afar.
You have special moves that need time to recharge, and you can put them on buttons for easy access. Also, Rook always has arrows to shoot, so you don’t run out during fights. This makes the battles exciting and fun.
Party Members and Conversation Wheel
In this game, talking with your party members and the choices you make in dialogue is super important for the story. Unlike some other games where you control your party members directly, here you can only give them commands using a special menu, kind of like in FF7 Rebirth and Remake. This makes fights more strategic because you have to think tactically about what commands to give.
They also brought back something called the conversation wheel, which fans of the Dragon Age series really like. Basically, when you talk to people, you get different options to choose from, each represented by a different picture. These pictures show different emotions, but we’re not totally sure what each one means yet. But it looks like they affect how your companions react to what you say.
Companions
Dragon Age: The Veilguard has seven different friends you can team up with, each with their own special skills and stories.
There’s Harding the Scout, Neve the detective, Lucanis the mage killer, Bellara the Veil Jumper, Emmrich the Necromancer, Taash the dragon hunter, and Davrin the Warden.
These friends aren’t just for fighting alongside you—they also add a lot to the story and help you understand the world better. Their personalities and stories make the game more interesting, and their abilities are super helpful in battles.
Currently, Dragon Age: The Veilguard is planned to be released in fall 2024 and this new game in the Dragon Age series is getting a lot of attention. It will have lots of ways to customize your character and exciting combat, and the popular conversation wheel is back. There will also be new companions to join you, making the game even more interesting.
And as we wait for its release, there will be more surprises and new Dragon Age: The Veilguard gameplay details revealed by BioWare.
