Ready your weapons, Rook. In honor of Dragon Age Day, a new patch has been released for Dragon Age: The Veilguard. This update brings some nostalgia with a special Dragon Age 2 costume and some fixes for the camera and the Photo Mode.
As the first entry in the series in ten years, Dragon Age: The Veilguard continues the story of Dragon Age: Inquisition, ten years later. As the Rook, you alongside a colorful cast of characters, will stop the trickster Stolas from destroying the Veil. Bringing back the acclaimed gameplay from past titles, The Veilguard marked a return to form for Bioware and back to their roots.
While the game wasn’t as successful as intended, with many feedback for the narrative and tone being negative, Dragon Age: The Veilguard still holds an 82 on Metacritic. Nevertheless, in celebration of Dragon Age Day, EA announced on their blog that a standalone character creator demo was released today alongside references to Dragon Age 2 and its hero, Hawke, put into the game. In honor of that, the outfit of Hawke was added to the game with Patch 4, as well as multiple fixes for gameplay glitches and the Photo Mode.
