Summary
In a newDragon Age: The Veilgaurdrelease date trailer, BioWare revealed that Morrigan is returning to the series.
We last saw her in Inquisition in which it’s revealed that Morrigan is Empress Celene’s occult advisor. She isn’t a playable companion, but she will travel to your base in Skyhold and may even bring her son Kieran depending on what decisions you made during Origins.
One fan even pointed outthat it looks like she’s wearing her mother Flemeth’s crown, the shapeshifting Witch of the Wilds who we meet in every game throughout the series. She is an indescribably powerful mage who many believe to be immortal, even able to transform into a high dragon, with legends that tell of her raising armies to invade the lowlands, although Morrigan disputes these tales. Regardless, she is said to have walked the Wilds for hundreds of years, but why Morrigan is now wearing her crown is a mystery.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard Release Date
Since the trailer is a release date trailer, it finally gives us a… release date. Except, it alreadyleaked this morning. Sorry, BioWare. Dragon Age: The Veilguard will finally arrive afterten yearsof waiting on Halloween later this year.
It joins an incredibly stacked month among games likeUntil Dawn,Silent Hill 2,Metaphor: ReFantazio,Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero,Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, andLife is Strange: Double Exposure. My wallet hurts just writing that.
There’s tons more to look forward to in the meantime. On the week of August 19, we can expect a high-level combat and PC spotlight, followed by a week dedicated to the game’s many companions on the week of August 26. Then, just four days later on August 30, the developers are hosting a Q&A on Discord.
