BioWare has dedicated an impressive 200,000 hours to testing its upcoming title, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, specifically on the PC platform. This extensive effort underscores the studio’s commitment to ensuring that the PC experience is both seamless and engaging for players. In a recent blog post, BioWare highlighted the franchise’s roots, stating, “the Dragon Age franchise started out on PC, and we wanted to make sure PC is a great place to play.”
Testing Commitment
During the testing phase, PCs accounted for 40% of the overall platform testing, which translates to an astonishing 22 years of cumulative testing time. This meticulous attention to detail aims to deliver a polished gaming experience, with the opening sequence of Dragon Age: The Veilguard reportedly set to surpass the dramatic finale of its predecessor, Inquisition. Such news is certainly encouraging for fans eagerly awaiting the next chapter in the beloved series.
However, not all news is as favorable. The collector’s edition of Dragon Age: The Veilguard is priced at $200, and notably, this premium package does not include the game itself. This pricing decision may raise eyebrows among potential buyers, prompting discussions about value and expectations in the gaming community.
