Bioware has announced that the game formerly known as Dragon Age: Dreadwolf has been retitled Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
The reason for the name change seems to be that Bioware and/or EA wanted the game’s title to better represent what’s happening in it, with the heroes at the centre rather than the enemy.
Sharing the news in a blog post, Bioware said:
“Each of the seven unique characters that make up your companions will have deep and compelling storylines where the decisions you make will impact your relationships with them – as well as their lives. You’ll unite this team of unforgettable heroes as you take on a terrifying new threat unleashed on the world. Naturally, the Dread Wolf still has an important part in this tale, but you and your companions – not your enemies – are the heart of this new experience.
So, to capture what this game is all about, we changed the name as the original title didn’t show just how strongly we feel about our new heroes, their stories and how you’ll need to bring them together to save all of Thedas.”
Bioware will be sharing more news on the game and it’s name change next week early on Tuesday morning. The times are all below for you to check out.
