BioWare has yet to explain how players' choices from the series' previous entry will affect the fourth game's story, however - but it could be big (I'm looking at you, Solas romancers).

Despite initial criticism from fans regarding The Veilguard's art style and the possibility of BioWare moving away from Dragon Age's renowned identity, it seems like the upcoming RPG features all sorts of iconic elements from the series. From its
