[summaraize]

BioWare has released Dragon Age: The Veilguard new update 1.000.005, or otherwise known as Patch 4, and this brings quality-of-life changes, a new outfit from Dragon Age 2, and of course, bug fixes.

The patch’s release today coincides with Dragon Age Day this December 4, and there are more festivities planned for players outside of the patch.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s Latest Update Version 1.000.005 Houses Over 20 Bug Fixes

New Content:

• Dragon Age 2 Hawke’s Iconic Outfit
  • Armor
  • Body Paint
  • Face Paint
• Qunari Complexions
  • Two new complexions for the Qunari lineage

Quality of Life Changes:

• In Patch 3, we introduced a line on screen showing where a Photo Mode screenshot was saved. In Patch 4, we are reverting that change due to a safety concern brought to us by some content creators. PC players can find their Photo Mode screenshots in Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age: The Veilguard/screenshots
• Added an in-game Setting to turn off Bloom.
• Added a “Hide/Show UI” button on the pause screen to better take screenshots on Console.
• Added a “Take Photo” button on the pause screen to take screenshots during conversations and cinematics on PC.

Bug Fixes: 

• Fixed an issue that prevented some saves from loading properly. (PC Only)
• Fixed an issue that was preventing the Frame Rate Limit setting from being saved.
• Fixed an issue with Rook’s face and hair changing drastically when a save is loaded.
• Fixed an issue with certain longer hairstyles that floated above Rook’s chest and shoulders.
• Fixed an issue where two Neve characters could appear in the Fire and Ice quest.

• Fixed an issue where the first hit in a Warrior Rook’s shield throw may miss the target unintentionally.
• Fixed an issue where the Slaughter of Pillars Revenant had no health bar.
• Fixed an issue that caused Achievement Progress to reset when a new Rook was created. This will not restore Achievement Progress that was overwritten, but your Rooks will no longer compete with each other for who can kill more High Dragons.
• Fixed an issue with the camera in The Demon’s Bargain quest when playing on an HDD.
• Fixed an issue with the camera in the Sea of Blood quest if Rook backtracked too far.
• Fixed two instances where Viago was clearly talking to Rook but was too absorbed by Teia’s beauty and staring at her instead.
• Fixed an issue with Photo Mode screenshots appearing slightly blurry for some players.
