BioWare has confirmed a handy feature from The Mass Effect series is back in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. One of the biggest elements of the Dragon Age series is creating a character and then shaping this character via dialogue and story choices. Yet, in the past, some of the Dragon Age character creators left plenty of room for improvement. That said, in the build-up to the release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, BioWare has been teasing that the next installment in the fantasy RPG series is going to have the biggest and best character creator of any BioWare game ever. And considering players have to create their own character, and create the Inquisitor from Dragon Age: Inquistion in the same character creator, they could be in said character creator for a while.

It's easy to imagine losing hours playing Dragon Age: The Veilguard before even playing it. The worst thing though is having to start from scratch every time you enter the character creator when sometimes you just want to import a previous creation for a second playthrough or just as a starting point for a new or tweaked character. To this end, you can save a character you create in the creator so you don't have to restart from point zero every time.

The Mass Effect series had this with a unique creation number you could punch in to get your previous character associated with that number. It is unclear how Dragon Age: The Veilguard will handle things, but BioWare does note it will be local to your machine because the RPG is an offline game.
