Buy Dragon Age: The Veilguard PC key

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a single-player RPG set in Thedas, where two corrupt ancient gods have escaped centuries of darkness and threaten to blight the world. You play as Rook, a new hero who leads a team of seven companions to stop them. Your actions affect the fate of Thedas, a land of rugged wilderness, treacherous labyrinths and glittering cities, where nations are at war and factions are splintering.

Thedas under threat

Your journey takes you from the Arlathan Forest to the back alleys of Minrathous, through new locations and places known but not yet seen. You face darkspawn, demons from beyond the Veil, dragons and other unique enemies as you fight for the continent’s future.

Your companions

You recruit seven companions, each with a personal history, struggles, motivations and skills. They include an assassin, a necromancer and a detective. You choose which companions to take into battle and can befriend or fall in love with them.

The companions are Harding: The Scout, Neve: The Detective, Emmrich: The Necromancer, Taash: The Dragon Hunter, Davrin: The Warden, Bellara: The Veil Jumper, and Lucanis: The Mage Killer. Their stories let you learn more about them, and your choices affect how they develop. Completing companion stories may unlock powerful abilities.

Create and develop Rook

You customize Rook’s appearance, choose a backstory and select a lineage: Human, Qunari, Dwarf or Elf. You also choose one of three classes: Warrior, Mage or Rogue. Each class has two distinct weapon types and abilities to choose between.

As you progress, you gain abilities and find artifacts that can shape your combat style. Combat combines fast attacks, parries and dodges with a companion ability wheel, allowing you to exploit enemy weaknesses and set up combat combos. Rook and the companions each have skill trees, where you choose perks and abilities and advance toward more powerful specializations. The journey also brings tough decisions and opportunities to inspire allies.
