The 10-year-old Dragon Age Inquisition not only requires an EA account to play on Steam, but EA online activation and Origin (now outdated) client software installation and background use as well.<\/p>\n<p>But EA and developer BioWare have decided to make the upcoming action fantasy role-playing sequel go \u201call-in\u201d on Steam in news that\u2019s already been welcomed by PC gamers. The decision comes following a backlash to Sony\u2019s decision to force Steam users to create a PlayStation Network account in order to play games published to Valve\u2019s platform \u2014 including single-player games.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Dragon Age: The Veilguard is verified on Steam Deck, BioWare tweeted.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re making great progress towards our fall launch date, and can confirm early that <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DragonAge?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DragonAge<\/a>: The Veilguard is going all-in on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Steam?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Steam<\/a> features!<br \/>\u2694\ufe0fWe&#8217;re verified on Steam Deck.<br \/>\u2694\ufe0fWe&#8217;ll be Steam native &#8211; meaning the EA App will not be required to play the game.<\/p>\n<p>Details on\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Dragon Age (@dragonage) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dragonage\/status\/1816511768044163410?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 25, 2024<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Dragon Age: The Veilguard is still without a release date, although BioWare has said it\u2019s out fall 2024. The studio said it\u2019s making \u201cgreat progress\u201d towards the fall launch date, but there\u2019s no announcement just yet.
