Dragon Age: The Veilguard for PS5 is 23% off for Black Friday
I enjoyed my time with Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and while this RPG isn’t as layered or nuanced as the predecessors in the fantasy series, it’s still a fun adventure game. The Veilguard only released in October, but the PlayStation 5 version of the game is currently 23% off at both Amazon and Walmart during Black Friday. (The Xbox version is still full price, alas.) Sales for such recent games are rare, so this is a nice way to check out the latest adventure to Thedas.
The Veilguard is the follow-up to Dragon Age: Inquisition, the critically acclaimed RPG that wrapped up tons of plot threads from the series’ first two games. This game focuses on Solas, the companion from Inquisition who was eventually revealed in the Trespasser DLC to be Fen’Harel, aka the Dread Wolf, an elven god of rebellion, lies, and trickery. The Veilguard begins with stumbling upon Solas’ ritual, which in turn… well, that gets into spoiler territory, you’ll have to find out for yourself.
The Veilguard takes place in the global north of Thedas, with the protagonist Rook and their group of companions using magical Eluvian mirrors to jump between a few regions. Even if you haven’t played the first three Dragon Age games, The Veilguard is built to rely much less on previous protagonists’ choices, meaning you should be totally fine if this is your introduction to BioWare’s fantasy series.
