Dragon Age: The Veilguard Best AAA PC Port In Years, Say Experts

Expert Verified By

Huge Win For PC Gaming!

Story Highlight
  • Dragon Age: The Veilguard has thoroughly impressed experts with its PC port.
  • It includes a slew of options and checks all the necessary boxes.
  • The game looks great, runs without any stuttering, and offers plenty of tweaking options for various builds.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard seems to have lived up to the hype, but its wins don’t stop here. Following highly positive reviews signaling BioWare’s comeback, the RPG’s PC port has become the center of attention.

According to an in-depth analysis, BioWare’s work in this department puts most AAA studios to shame. Experts have dubbed Dragon Age: The Veilguard an exceptional PC port.

Why it matters: Modern games based on Unreal Engine 5 and other technologies often face stuttering, poor performance, and other hiccups on this platform. This makes Dragon Age: The Veilguard a breath of fresh air.

As per Digital Foundry, the latest PC release from BioWare has everything this platform needs and deserves. This makes it the best release in many years that the platform has seen.

The experts point to smooth and consistent frame times, ray tracing that uses PC hardware to offer higher fidelity than consoles, and a generally optimized port that runs well on mid-range graphics cards like the RTX 4060.

The settings menu is also highly detailed and customizable, and the RPG is well-suited to 8GB VRAM GPUs. Simply put, Dragon Age: The Veilguard delivers on all fronts, which can’t be said for many other PC titles.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a radical departure from the current AAA norm. Dragon Age is polished.

The game runs on DICE’s Frostbite technology, the same engine that has powered the Battlefield series for decades.

While the engine itself has always been remarkable, Dead Space Remake was far from ideal on PC despite using the same engine. As such, BioWare’s work is truly impressive.

BioWare Has Finally Redeemed Itself After Back-to-Back Failures

Other notable plus points include the lack of Denuvo and an extensive shader compilation step after the initial launch. These simple qualities are often missing from modern titles designed for the platform.

The console version seems impressive in its own right, making this RPG a must-play for fans of the series. What are your thoughts on the analysis? Are you looking forward to the latest Dragon Age offering?
