Bioware has been showing off several early looks at the upcoming Dragon Age: The Veilguard, building hype for fans as they prepare to return to Thedas. The team’s latest details focus on the companion and progression systems, which look to be a refreshing take for the Dragon Age series.
These upcoming systems highlight how much customization players can put into Rook, the main playable character featured in Veilguard, but also the way Rook plays as a Warrior, Rogue, or Mage. The skill tree progression is immense, and while it might seem daunting at first glance, the Bioware team has gone out of its way to provide helpful nudges for players to figure out how they should build based on their preferred playstyle. It’s an immense upgrade from previous Dragon Age games and precisely what the series needed to thrive alongside current RPG systems.
