The next Dragon Age game is now dubbed 'The Veilguard,' and you don't have long to wait to see it at all.
BioWare explains in a new blog post that we're seeing official gameplay on June 11 at 8am PDT/11am EDT/4 pm BST, barely one week away. That'll include 15 minutes of gameplay from the game's opening moments, which should be a nostalgic return for those among you who have missed Thedas.
"After Dragon Age: Inquisition launched, the studio was given an incredible opportunity to explore, test, and validate a variety of gameplay concepts as we worked to determine what the next Dragon Age could look like," Dragon Age executive producer Gary McKay says. "We brought everything to the table which, yes, even included a multiplayer concept. The time we spent experimenting and iterating gradually taught us a lot.
"This work, and the amazing support from EA, helped us re-focus on creating an incredible single-player game, with all the choices, characters and world-building you’d expect from us."
While the Dread Wolf has got the old heave-ho from the title, McKay says they still have an important role to play, it's just that "you and your companions – not your enemies – are the heart of this new experience." That's the short of why we're getting a name change here.
Reports of Dragon Age 4's development have persisted for a while, from its initial multiplayer focus to its return to the single-player format. A recent report that said we'd see gameplay this summer also said it would release before April 2025. With less than a week until we see said gameplay, we could be in for much more.
