Long-time fans of the Dragon Age The franchise waited impatiently for ten years between the launch of Dragon Age: Inquisition And Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian. Despite the long downtime between entries and the drastic changes in gameplay and art style In the latest release, it seems that BioWare hasn’t lost its magic touch for the series. That’s what it turned out Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian is EA’s biggest single-player game release on Steam to date and exceeds expectations Star Wars Jedi: Survivor last year, which topped the charts and broke player records for the publisher.

On launch day Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian enjoyed a record player count of just over 70,000, which is truly impressive for a single-player game. The day after launch – a workday for most people – those numbers were around 62,000. Now, I know a lot of people will think that 70,000 isn’t all that impressive since it doesn’t crack the top ten most played games on Steam, but it surpassed them Baldur’s Gate 3 for a while, which is no small feat. What’s even more impressive is that on the first day Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian sold out Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on Steam and displaced the FPS by one place on the list of top sellers.

If you spend a lot of time online today, you’ll find a lot Discourse about Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian. A vocal minority continues to downplay and assert its importance Monster Hunter Wilds The beta test outperforms the full version Dragon Age release. Yes, it does. But Monster Hunter Wilds is a free, limited beta. So it will obviously outperform a full price RPG. We can celebrate both!

So, why is that? Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian surpass EA’s other single-player hits? It’s a well-made RPG with action-combat mechanics, impressive world design, perhaps one of the best character creators in the genre, and an extensive storyline that takes almost 100 hours to complete. Oh, and it’s Steam Deck compatible and doesn’t require an EA app!
