Dragon Age: The Veilguard looks better than its trailer

EA showed off Dragon Age: The Veilguard during the recent Xbox Games Showcase with a CG trailer that scared some fans off with its irreverent tone and stylized visuals. Well, during Summer Game Fest, I saw a live gameplay demo from the first hour of the game. And while I was not a fan of the CG trailer, the offhand demo was impressive.

While the trailer had a vibe and tone that felt a bit more Fortnite than Dragon Age, the actual game looks more like what fans expect. It’s a prettier, flashier version of Dragon Age: Inquisition.
