In 2025, excitement is building around a game that was released in October 2024, Dragon Age: The Veilguard. The acclaimed fantasy series’ latest might finally be coming to Game Pass, a service that allows subscribers to downlaod and play a rotating selection of titles. If this game is added, it will be available to more players without them having to pay full price.

With AAA games releasing at $60 or more, it’s a big relief when you get access to highly anticipated titles through Game Pass, which only charges a monthly fee. I am someone who hesitates to spend full price on games, so the chance of this highly acclaimed game appearing on Game Pass has me excited. The Veilguard recently came to PlayStation Plus, but adding it to Game Pass too would make it even easier for people to play. Fans have been hoping for this, and now it seems like it could finally happen.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Gets A PC Game Pass Listing

Nothing Is Confirmed, But This Could Be Big News For Subscribers

Dragon Age Veilguard PC Game Pass.

As pointed out by Xbox Era, Dragon Age: The Veilguard has recently appeared on the Xbox app for PC Game Pass. While the console version doesn’t show the Game Pass tag, the PC version is listed with a playable trial available for those with a subscription. This has raised some questions about whether The Veilguard will be added to Game Pass in full soon.

When searching for the game on the console store, there’s no mention of it being part of Game Pass. However, if you search for it on the PC store, a “PC Game Pass” version of the game pops up, along with a trial. It’s not clear if this is an error or a preview of what’s to come, but the excitement around Dragon Age: The Veilguard joining Game Pass is growing. For now, the PC listing gives fans something to look forward to.

If True, The Veilguard On Game Pass Would Be A Big Win

With Increasing Costs On Game Pass, Veilguard Would Be A Win

If Dragon Age: The Veilguard really does make its way to Xbox Game Pass, it would be a big win for both players and the service itself. Game Pass has become a go-to for many players who want access to various games without paying full price. But with prices rising in recent months, it can sometimes be hard to justify keeping the subscription active, especially when the game library doesn’t always have something that pulls you back in.

As someone who often cancels my Game Pass subscription and only reactivates it when a game catches my eye, The Veilguard would definitely be one of those titles that gets me back in. The Dragon Age series has a massive fan base, and adding The Veilguard to Game Pass would be a huge reason for players to stick with their subscriptions.

Game Pass offers a great deal when it comes to value, but the increasing subscription cost has made it a bit harder for some to stay signed up for the long term. Adding The Veilguard to the service could make the price feel more worth it, especially for fans of the Dragon Age series who have been waiting for the next big installment.

If the game joins Game Pass, it would show how the service continues to offer top-tier games as part of its subscription model. For players like me who go back and forth on whether to keep the subscription, The Veilguard could be the perfect reason to jump back into Game Pass without the added cost of buying the game separately.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard coming to Game Pass could bring in a whole new group of players to the Dragon Age series. While the franchise already has a loyal fanbase, this latest installment could attract new players, especially since Game Pass makes it easy for people to try new games without paying full price.

With the price of AAA games going up, many players are hesitant to spend $60 or more on a new title. Players can download and play via Game Pass for a comparatively low monthly fee, giving them a chance to decide if it’s the right fit for them.

Although The Veilguard was well-received by critics, it did not meet financial expectations, leading to layoffs at developer BioWare, which is now effectively a skeleton crew working on the next Mass Effect.

Game Pass could be the perfect way to dive in for people who have never played a Dragon Age game. You may have heard of the series but never tried it, and now you have an easy opportunity to experience the game’s rich story and gameplay. With Game Pass, there’s no risk. Players can simply try the game without worrying about spending too much.

While it’s not confirmed yet, the idea of Dragon Age: The Veilguard coming to Game Pass has people excited. If it happens, it will be a great chance for people who missed it the first time to jump in and enjoy one of 2024’s best games.
