Also Verified For Steam Deck From Launch!

Story Highlight
  • BioWare confirms that Dragon Age: The Veilguard will work natively with Steam.
  • It also states that the RPG will be compatible with Steam Deck from the beginning.
  • More information on the release date will be shared this summer.

Dragon Age The Veilguard is one of 2024’s most exciting releases, heading into the latter half of 2024. With promising trailers so far and a lack of microtransactions, BioWare seems to be on the verge of something special.

The team continues to share more encouraging information about the RPG as the 2024 release draws nearer. Its latest update confirms that Dragon Age: The Veilguard will be playable on Steam natively.

Why it matters: The number of third-party launchers on PC has become a major problem. Most gamers still prefer Steam as the standard, but they are often forced to rely on other launchers for specific titles.

BioWare’s Announcement via Twitter

BioWare has confirmed that Dragon Age: The Veilguard won’t require EA’s App on PC. For the unaware, buying EA games on Steam requires installation of this app to play games from the publisher.

This often leads to backlash since fans are not fond of installing launchers unnecessarily. Nonetheless, BioWare is skipping this system. The studio also confirms that its upcoming RPG will be Steam Deck verified from the get-go.

More information on the launch date is expected to arrive later this summer. For now, Dragon Age: The Veilguard is said to be launching in 2024. Fans are currently expecting a launch around Fall 2024, but the developer has refrained from confirming anything yet.

BioWare sounds quite confident in its work on the latest Dragon Age entry. The studio previously described is the first game in the IP where the combat is actually fun. Moreover, the team has recently discussed other details, like romance options.

All in all, there’s already plenty of information about the RPG out there. The developer has huge expectations to live up to, but many fans are already on board, expressing faith in the studio’s vision.

In addition to everything said previously, the latest update on the Steam support is certainly encouraging for PC players. This should make the RPG more popular on PC since Steam is unparalleled on this platform.
