Dragon Age: The Veilguard goes gold

BioWare is on track to release its first single-player RPG since 2017. Dragon Age: The Veilguard is the long-awaited to 2014 GOTY winner, Dragon Age Inquisition, aiming to recapture the ‘magic' BioWare games used to be known for. 

Dragon Age: The Veilguard has officially gone gold after around nine years in development. Along the way, the game has gone through staff changes and reboots, but for the past five years, BioWare's had its final plan for the game underway.

In the software world, going gold is the point in development where you've reached Version 1.0 and are ready to print physical discs. Of course, in the digital gaming age, this does not mean that there won't be a day-one patch.

Going gold doesn't always discount last minute delays either, as we saw in 2020 with Cyberpunk 2077, which was delayed shortly after ‘going gold' and ultimately launched in a very messy state. However, there have been no reports of messy development for this latest iteration of the new Dragon Age game, so we'll keep our fingers crossed that the game is truly good to go.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is due to release on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on the 31st of October.
