Dragon Age: The Veilguard will function nudity. That is one thing I realized firsthand whereas customizing my Rook inside BioWare’s Edmonton, Canada, workplace earlier this 12 months throughout my cowl story go to. We had been customizing a female Rook, and whereas adjusting physique choices – learn Sport Informer’s in-depth function about Veilguard’s character creator right here for extra particulars – our Rook’s shirt disappeared to allow us to customise issues like chest measurement.
And that is when Veilguard sport director Corrine Busche smiled, probably understanding full properly that nudity within the character creator means nudity elsewhere within the sport, like in Veilguard’s romances, one thing I do know BioWare followers will likely be delighted to listen to. “It is a mature RPG,” she tells me.
I solely see topless nudity within the character creator, and once I later ask BioWare if there may be backside nudity as properly, I am advised that is one thing it desires to let followers uncover for themselves within the sport. Attention-grabbing reply, contemplating we’re speaking about genitalia right here, however I do not push additional. Although the sport’s leads would not share an excessive amount of about romance choices within the sport, I’ve a sense nudity will play a component in some cutscenes and that is what BioWare is alluding to.
Nudity has been current in earlier BioWare video games, but it surely’s nearly all the time been implied. Characters are generally bare in romance scenes and elsewhere, however arms, legs, shadows, and items of surroundings obscure characters’ extra… oogly bits. With a few of these bits on full show within the character creator, I’ve a sense Veilguard’s romantic scenes would be the spiciest within the collection’ historical past. And the sport’s fairly visible design, operating in EA’s Frostbite engine, solely provides to that.
Okay, I feel I’ve hit the restrict that I can write the phrase nudity on my work pc earlier than it will get flagged by HR or one thing. You will have to attend for the sport’s full launch this fall to study extra about nudity, romance, and extra.
