The end of Game Informer marks a blow to Dragon Age: The Veilguard, as its exclusive articles and coverage remain inaccessible following the publication's closure. After years of troubling delays, lengthy media silence from BioWare, and the controversial debut of its initial trailer, Dragon Age: The Veilguard began with a rough marketing campaign. While recent reports have begun to sway public opinion regarding the upcoming RPG, much of the title's more in-depth coverage was found within the pages of Game Informer.

The game's concept is sound: a formula that combines everything that has made BioWare successful packed into a single next-gen title. As opposed to Origins and Inquisition, the combat in Dragon Age: The Veilguard takes inspiration from more action-oriented BioWare titles such as Mass Effect 2. While this means that players can no longer control their companions directly, classes in The Veilguard remain as complex as ever, featuring a total of nine specializations and an intricate "skill web" system. Many details about its character progression were first revealed by Game Informer, as Electronic Arts worked with the media outlet and its writing staff to provide exclusive pre-release coverage of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
