For many years, EA titles likeStar Wars SquadronsandBattlefield 2042have required you to log in to an EA account on a separate client before you’re able to dive into the game even if you’ve bought its games on Steam.

The officialDragon Age Threads accountconfirmed the news on Thursday.
No release date has been given yet for The Veilguard, but EA and BioWare say that they’re “making great progress towards [the game’s] fall launch date.” We’ll be getting more news on the launch ofDragon Age: The Veilguard"later this summer," according to the Threads post.

When Did Dragon Age: Inquisition Come Out?
Take a seat, you might be astounded by how old this game is now.
You may not believe it but the last Dragon Age game came out almost 10 years ago, on June 30, 2025. Dragon Age: Inquisition won Game of the Year during 2014’s Game Awards, the first ever to win the prize. It beat Bayonetta 2, Dark Souls II, Hearthstone, and Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor at the time.

“While BioWare is well known for their strong role-playing games, it’s perplexing how they were able to reach this level of quality with Dragon Age: Inquisition,” said our review. “It’s one of the most overwhelming experiences on the market, containing not only the best character development found in any RPG but an open world that’s actually polished.”
In a world with the in-depth RPGs Baldur’s Gate 3 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, it will be interesting to see how Dragon Age: The Veilguard fares in today’s gaming landscape.
