After last night’s cinematic trailer for Dragon Age: The Veilguard which detailed the game’s full suite of seven companion characters, today brings our first – albeit very brief – glimpse at actual gameplay.
A short clip shared to social media platform X shows series regular Varric in Minrathous, capital of the Tevinter Imperium region, a location we have heard plenty about – but never seen before in a mainline Dragon Age game.
Varric is hot on the tail of Solas following the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition, though I imagine things won’t be as easy as he makes out here. Minrathous, meanwhile, or the quick glimpse we get of it, looks suitably grim. I’m getting dark Ankh Morpork vibes.
