Nudity Confirmed for Dragon Age: The Veilguard: 'This is a Mature RPG' | Push Square
pushsquare.comThe Veilguard, the next instalment of BioWare's Dragon Age series, will feature nudity in the style of similarly adult RPGs like Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur's Gate 3. This is important for many reasons, immersion perhaps one of them, but it marks the first time a game developed by the studio will spice up its romance scenes by showing some digital skin.
That's according to essential journalism done by Game Informer, which went hands-on with the game and discovered the revelation. They found that topless nudity was present during character creation, allowing players to customize things like chest size, and game director Corinne Busche assured the outlet that: «This is a mature RPG.»
GI asked whether bottom nudity also made it into the game and was told that the studio wanted players to discover that for themselves, likely relegated to the game's romance cutscenes. Previously, BioWare has shied away from full nudity, with scenes depicted in series like Mass Effect implying rather than actually showing it.

No will somebody please think of the puritans!
A bit ironic that the first Dragon Age with nudity will be the one with the ugliest art style yet.
