As Eurogamer reported earlier today, Dragon Age Dreadwolf has a new name – which has now been formally announced as Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
BioWare boss Gary McKay revealed the game’s new title in a blog post today that also offered fresh details on the game – and an explanation for why its name has changed at the eleventh hour.
“Every Dragon Age game has delivered a new standalone story,” McKay wrote. “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 – right? 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.
