With the release of Dragon Age The Veilguard, BioWare and EA have revived the Dragon Age franchise, which last saw an installment just under 10 years ago. The game is presently available for purchase on the PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X and S platforms. A first for the franchise, Dragon Age the Veilguard brings a photo mode feature that will allow players to capture any aspect of the massive open world of Thedas during their gameplay.

This photo mode has many settings that players can tweak around with, including sliders for brightness vignette intensity and an option to hide or feature characters and NPCs within the scene. Here's everything to know about the feature's inclusion in the title.
