Dragon Age: The Veilguard chose to take the same path as Baldur’s Gate 3 in regards love stories: they will be possible with all companionsregardless of gender. We still don’t have the full picture of the party and how it will work, but BioWare has already announced that the player will be able to recruit a total of seven unique companions throughout the story, each belonging to a different faction of Thedas.
Multiple loves
As mentioned, for now the details are lacking in this regard and we must wait for the presentation on June 11th to find out more about the entire game, considering that for now The gameplay has never been officially showndespite some data thefts that have occurred in the past with videos attached.
BioWare General Manager Gary McKay raised the point in an interview with IGN. The man stated that players will be able to “have romance with the companions they want.” Unfortunately he also didn’t go into much detail, so it wasn’t very clear whether all the characters will be pansexual or whether there will be characterizations in this sense.
In any case, BioWare’s choice should not cause a big stir, considering that Dragon Age 2 in 2010 was one of the pioneers in expanding the choices for love stories in electronic role-playing games. Furthermore, recently we have seen several RPGs that have worked on this point, such as Baldur’s Gate 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, with different choices in terms of narrative design, but still aimed at an openness with respect to the theme.
For the rest we remind you that Dragon Age: The Veilguard is expected to release in the next few months. There are those who talk about the end of 2024 and those about the beginning of 2025. We’ll see. We will be able to play it on PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5. Who knows if also on Super Nintendo Switch.
