A recent interview with Corinne Busche and Matthew Rhodes reveals BioWare’s ambitious vision for Minrathous, the primary city in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and the capital of the Tevinter Imperium. When it comes to fictional cities, BioWare excelled with classics such as Baldur’s Gate and Athkatla, but never quite hit its mark in the world of Thedas. While Kirkwall was arguably BioWare’s best attempt at creating a living, breathing city in the Dragon Age universe, the rushed production of the second title in the franchise never allowed it to reach its full potential. By contrast, Dragon Age: The Veilguard has had the luxury of time to depict Minrathous as the sprawling metropolis it’s said to be.
