Fingers crossed we get release date today. Veilguard artbook is being promoted there, so it would make sense for it to get a release date. Inquisition artbook was released on the day of game release. As well this stuff has heavy spoilers, so releasing the artbook before game makes no sense. Has to be the day of game release or later. Okay small correction, SDCC panels will last 3 days.
So release date could be announced between today and Saturday. At least I'll have family in town to keep me distracted and from refreshing the forum every 5 minutes waiting for info.

So I'm hearing that Veilguard will not require the EA app to play?

Good. I plan on playng on PS5 anyway, but since I still can't play my Steam version of Mass Effect:Legendary Edition because of EAapp (I resolved getting a second hand PS4 copy from a friend) I can only be happy for the PC people.

Well, that pretty much kills any chance of a release date announced at SDCC. Wonder if they’ll be doing anything at the Fandom party.

I do really want to get the release date though so I can plan any time off work I might want to take.

The idea that the release date announcement has to be at some event is weird to me. EA have been doing their release date announcement via press release and social media with no event happening at the same time for a few years now.

Hopefully August at least has some worthwhile reveals for the game before Gamescon. July was full of nothingburger articles of stuff we already knew in June, with the only notable new info being the main voice cast.

Please can someone explain about the Steam features. I thought this was going to be a totally off-line game but the only game I had on Steam, Pillars of Eternity, required me to be on-line to play it.
Also, when are they going to tell us what spec PC we need? Surely that doesn't have to wait until the official launch date is announced?

Gosh, I still do not like that purple at all. To those not liking the color I'd say - that's valid, but perhaps you'd tolerate it better if you consider that it's very likely deeply story-related.

As far as I can tell you will be able to play completely offline, and also on your steam deck if you wish. Very straightforward, no stupid EA app to make things complicated and annoying.

well, I guess that Gamescom is probably going to be really important for Dragon Age I can totally see Geoff announcing on stage that "Pre-Orders are available" and with that, they would be announcing the release date and system requirements

I think it would already be quite odd for them to announce a November release date in August. I can't remember seeing an AAA game with a space of 3 months or less between announcement and release, so I would be even more surprised and happy with the game being released in September or October. That said, if I'm not mistaken, an insider said there would be no concerns about Dragon Age having to compete with Assassin's Creed in November, so I guess it could mean that the game will be releasing by the end of November or beginning of December?

No EA launcher required is awesome news! And color me very surprised!
The last game I installed it for was MELE and I haven't even reinstalled the damn app since I got my new PC last August. Fantastic!

well, from what I saw, excluding EA Sports games, since the beginning of 2023 most of EA games release dates were announced 4 months or more before the official release but I would still be surprised with 4 months, so you got a point also, the post from the Dragon Age account mentions that "they're making great progress towards the Fall launch", and Fall ends in December 21, so, we're less than 5 months away from the release of Veilguard

I still think it's funny that the 2020 trailer emphasised the new hero has "no magic hand" as though this time round we were just having our own natural abilities and then they give us a fancy blade, presumably made of pure lyrium. Okay, so it's not actually part of us but it is something you don't see every day. Key there is 2020. The fact that many things (like Varric having your back) have survived four more years of tortured development is nothing short of a minor miracle. Also why I don't put any stock into anything implied about the future game from Trespasser. Those breadcrumbs were meant to lead to Joplin and that game is LONG gone. Thanks.
