Dragon Age: The Veilguard is being optimized for the PC on a large scale. The makers have now announced which PC-specific features you can expect.
As is well known, the new Dragon Age: The Veilguard will not only be released for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, but also for the PC. Of course, the RPG epic should also be impressive on the home computer and so BioWare is putting a lot of work into optimizing it for this platform.
In this regard, a more detailed statement has now been made in time for gamescom, emphasizing that the team has already completed over 200,000 hours of performance and compatibility tests on the PC. Nothing should be left to chance.
Accordingly, there are all sorts of PC-specific features that are not available in this form on the consoles. Want some examples? 21:9 ultrawide resolutions are fully supported, and the frame rate can be set to an unlimited maximum. VSync is supported, as is HDR and optional upscaling via features such as DLSS 3, FSR 2.2 or XeSS. Other supported options are NVIDIA Reflex, DLSS 3 frame generation, optional dynamic resolution scaling or a cinematic aspect ratio.
The graphics settings can be adjusted in many levels from Low to Ultra, individual options affect the texture quality and filtering, the light and shadow settings, reflections or ray tracing. Camera effects such as motion blur, field of view and more can also be designed according to your wishes.
The creators explain how the whole thing is implemented in detail in a detailed blog entry, which you can read if you are interested you can read it in full here.
