Excitement is growing Dragon Age: The Veilguard as its October 31, 2024 release date approaches.

The encounter in the trailer shows the magical rook fighting alongside Taash and Lucanis to take on the vicious dragon Korius the Iceman in an attempt to extract Icetalon's master, the corrupted elven goddess Gilan'nain. During battle, the player uses various combinations of abilities to chase and disable the dragon, at one point slowing it down in mid-air. Since Taash is the only companion of the Qunari in the Dragon Age: The Veilguard as well as being a dragon hunter, she also plays an important role, using her dragon hunting skills in coordination with Luddi's magic and Lukanis' killing techniques.


At the start of the encounter, the Gray Wardens also play a supporting role. The Gray Wardens were the focal point Dragon Age: Originsbut gradually faded into the background alongside factions such as mages and templars. However, the association of the resurgent elven gods with the Darkborn also seems to bring the Gray Wardens back into the picture as a major force, alongside Dragon Age: The Veilguard a companion of Daurin, who is himself an active guardian.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard looks like a solid return to form Dragon Age and perhaps for BioWare, whose recent troubles (not least with CoveredDevelopment of Russia) received wide publicity. Its success could help seal a new chapter for the studio and revive the classic franchise for a new era.
