Dragon Age: The Veilguard free download quietly released to celebrate launch

Dragon Age fans are eating well at the moment with a new release in the bag and a bunch of people discovering the series of the first time - me included.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is doing astonishingly well across PC and consoles, so Microsoft is getting in on the action with a couple of freebies for fans.

Are you one of the millions of fans playing Dragon Age: The Veilguard?

To celebrate the launch of the RPG Xbox is giving users two new dynamic backgrounds to download for free.

Since embracing dynamic backgrounds for their consoles, Microsoft has been dropping a few here and there for fans to jazz up their experience.

The themes were showcased on Twitter, where you can see them both in all their glory.

Both themes feature amazing artwork and are accompanied by Hans Zimmers’ tremendous soundtrack.

It’s always nice to be able to embrace the games you love and show a little extra support, even if it’s just making your console’s home screen a little easier on the eye.

BioWare are seeing tremendous success with the game as it rides high on sales charts and sparks online conversations with everyone sharing their version of the protagonist, Rook.

I’ve only managed to put in around two hours, 30 minutes of which I was creating Rook, but so far I’m impressed.

It’s a truly stunning game visually and I’ve already lost count of the number of screenshots I’ve taken in such a short time period.

Of course, there are plenty of gamers who would try to stomp on the game for showing a modicum of social awareness and thankfully they’re being drowned out by the waves of praise.

Now BioWare moves on to focus on Mass Effect 5, which is incredibly exciting, but there’s still plenty of time to revel in the glow that is Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
