The review embargo details for Dragon Age: The Veilguard have been revealed, and the reviews are expected to be released a few days before the official launch date.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard marks the first game in the series in nearly a decade. The last major release in the franchise was Dragon Age: Inquisition, and since then, Bioware has worked on multiple projects within the series, some of which were canceled or shelved. With the release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Bioware aims to return the franchise to its original appeal.
