(Image credit: BioWare) The recent reveal ofDragon Age: The Veilguardprovided a glimpse at the RPG’s quirky cast of companions, sparking all sorts of fan reactions - including an unquenchable thirst that even the developers are apparently aware of. Let’s face it - we’ve all been there, whether with Astarion in Baldur’s Gate 3 (couldn’t be me) or G’raha Tia in Final Fantasy 14. You meet a companion or NPC in-game that ticks all your boxes and fall head over heels for some pixels. This tale as old as time isn’t changing withBioWare’s upcoming Dragon Age entry either, and The Veilguard’s new trailer debuted during theXbox Games Showcaseserves as proof. Reactions onTwitterright now range from “I CAN’T BREATHE” to “God DAYUM.” An in-game look at all the Dragon Age the Veilguard companions from the Xbox website 👀 #DragonAge pic.twitter.com/viYPSOP8jbJune 10, 2024 An in-game look at all the Dragon Age the Veilguard companions from the Xbox website 👀 #DragonAge pic.twitter.com/viYPSOP8jbJune 10, 2024 “Thank you for the meal,” another reads. “I want to smooch all of them.” With seven stunning companions to choose from, each with a unique look and personality, it’s no wonder everyone has a hankering for more - and BioWare knows it, too. Responding to the boundless Twitter thirst himself, level design supervisor Brian Audette jokinglyremarksthat after seeing “how thirsty some of y’all are” he thinks that “instead of a companions trailer we should have just given them Tinder profiles.” Seeing how thirsty some of y’all are, I think instead of a companions trailer we should have just given them Tinder profiles.June 10, 2024 Seeing how thirsty some of y’all are, I think instead of a companions trailer we should have just given them Tinder profiles.June 10, 2024 Replies under Audette’s post are as you’d expect - with some saying “there’s still time” for the companions to make it to Tinder and others simply saying they’re “on board” with turning the joke into reality. Despite initialcriticism from fans regarding The Veilguard’s art style, the widespread thirst for the new Dragon Age’s companions is undeniable. Personally, I’m very much here for it. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have various elves to simp for ahead of The Veilguard’s release. Dragon Age players with early access to The Veilguard say that the RPG’s “trailer doesn’t do it justice” as it may just be “the most beautiful” entry from BioWare yet Sign up to the GamesRadar+
