Making Rook The Hero Of The Next Dragon Age Could Fix The Series' Biggest Problem
21.11.2024
Dragon Age: The Veilguard had a lot to live up to.

One of the reasons it took me so long to start a second playthrough of Dragon Age: The Veilguard is that recreating the Inquisitor, the protagonist of 2014’s Dragon Age: Inquisition, is a painstaking process. I loved making an older version of my Inquisition hero the first time I played through...

A new BioWare game is out, which means that love is in the air. Dragon Age: The Veilguard has seven companions, and you can romance any one of them.

‘You Already Have Everything You Need’

It’s a rough Wednesday, but you probably don’t need me to tell you that. If, somehow, you’re learning this through Kotaku and not anywhere else, convicted felon Donald J. Trump is projected to win the 2024 presidential election over Vice President Kamala Harris. As a queer person in America, it’s...
This Bug Nearly Ruined Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s Excellent Finale For Me

Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s party is probably the best BioWare has introduced in the series since it began in 2009. It’s the smallest group, with only seven members filling the titular team, but each of them acts as a window into the rich world of Thedas. They build compelling friendships with...

Dragon Age: The Veilguard: The Kotaku Review
28.10.2024
I admit, I’d grown cynical. Dragon Age has a well-established penchant for swapping out protagonists with each new game, and for treating one entry’s be-all, end-all conflicts as little more than narrative springboards that can largely be cast aside in the next. However, with 2014’s Inquisition,...

Seven Hours With Dragon Age: The Veilguard: Has BioWare Learned The Right Lessons?
19.9.2024
I have been waiting for Dragon Age: The Veilguard for 10 years. The last game developer BioWare put out was 2019’s Anthem, an ill-fated loot shooter that chased live-service trends and felt like a misuse of the team’s talents. In the years since, there have been reports and admissions from...
