Dragon Age: The Veilguard Unveils Diverse Companions and Key Character Absences

BioWare's latest RPG introduces new heroes while omitting fan-favorite characters from previous games.

The Veilguard features seven new companions, each from different factions in Thedas.
Key characters like Hawke are notably absent, disappointing some long-time fans.
Returning characters include Harding and an older Varric, though Varric is not a companion.
Companions are central to the game's narrative and player engagement.
The game is set for release in fall 2024, with high expectations from the Dragon Age community.
