Amid a flurry of RPG news and announcements at the end of August, Bioware continues the hype train for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, one of the fall’s most anticipated titles.
The latest: new videos on the warrior class’ combat abilities, more details on the Veilguard’s companions, a developer Q&A on Discord, and last (but certainly not least): the debut episode of Dragon Age: Vows and Vengeance, an eight-part narrative podcast series taking place in the Dragon Age universe.
We forgive you if you missed some of the bigger details; it’s been a heckuva week. Overall, it continues to be an exciting time to be a Dragon Age fan, so let’s break it all down for you.
New Gameplay Videos Showcase Warrior Class
We start with the oldest bit of news, yet arguably the most impressive. Back on August 24th, Bioware published a blog post with four new gameplay videos offering a look into the combat system and how players can strategically customize the loadouts of Rook and their companions to challenge Thedas’ threats on the field. You can find the first below, with the rest on the official YouTube channel.

Dragon Age: Vows and Vengeance Premieres
Set before the upcoming game, the Dragon Age: Vows and Vengeance narrative podcast was created in collaboration with BioWare. This should give us fans a chance to wet our whistles before Dragon Age: The Veilguard releases.
Vows and Vengeance features a pair of heroes brought together by fate. Nadia, a retired cat burglar, finds herself back on the prowl after scoring the job of a lifetime. Unknowingly employed by the Dread Wolf, Nadia becomes entangled in a world-threatening web of lies. When her partner Elio is seemingly banished to the Fade—a mystical, magical plane—Nadia desperately searches for answers on a rescue mission across Thedas.
